joana vasconcelos
‘piano dentelle’, 2008
joana vasconcelos is a paris born artist who now lives and works in lisbon, portugal. she has exhibited
her works around the world in a number of group shows and many solo shows. she primarily creates
sculpture and installation pieces. many of her key works apply white crochet patterns to a variety of
objects like computers, sculptures, pianos and even bridges. the works are completely covered in the
crochet, with only the form and negative space to identify the object. ‘piano dentelle’ is the aforementioned
crochet covered piano and gives a good impression of the detail in these works.

The crochet works are probably less than 20% of her work... see also "Cinderella" (2007), "Garden of Eden" (2007), "Joujoux" (2007), "Red Independent Heart" (2005), "Burka" (2002) or the iconic work from the 2005 Venice Biennale "The Bride" (2001)... just to mention a few ones.
