wire drawing on a wall



A new style of "drawing" I've been experimenting on the walls of my studio.

So I really like this idea- you get two lines, one of the wire and one of the shadow. In some ways, the stark simplicity of the composition (which seems to float, which is great) reminds me of Goldsworthy and the 'drawings' he makes out of twigs fused together with ice over, say, a field of snow. It also reminds me of a guy who sculpts with a big ol' flat bit of wire mesh. But he manipulates it into forms, mostly nudes, and they're SO awesome. But the point is, the shadow it casts on the wall is often even cooler. I don't know what his name is though... Eric Boyer, that's it. Anyways, it's amazing. The shadows on the wall look JUST like a perfectly shaded 3D-effect drawing. It's a spectacular side effect.
