Hooks, Stitches, and Moebius

The show is over, but I had a chance to take some pictures, so here is my "recreation of this show, which draw a lot of attention and brought to the gallery in Williams Art Center, Lafayette College, Easton, PA many people, even those who are not usual guests in art galleries.

Vine at the entrance of the gallery made by Susan Huxley with participation from the public. It is based on endagered Pensylvania plant Lonicera hirsute commonly called Eaton hairy honeysuckle.

Susan Huxley started this piece from VHS tape as Lorenz manifold but one small mistake led to the others and Susan calls this "Cascading Failures:Lorenz Project". When it is displayed and lit up - does not look like a failure from artistic point of view :-)

This is another attempt to recreate Lorenz Manifold originally designed and crocheted by Hinke Osinga and Berndt Krauskopf - the author of thispiece is Tracy Jen.
