Gosh… her works are really boring. Always the same stuff.
Next please!
she just wrapps things and mimics traditional patters, it’s looks “nice” and “cute” but Christo was wrapping entire buildings 20 years ago so maybe she should just move on…
Did this people visit her website? 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.
