Can lace be a sculpture?

Well can it?

When you think of lace what do you think of?  Something light, delicate and usually white.  Or at least that is what I think of.  Did you have any other thoughts about it?

Well the artist Agnes Herczag has come up with a new vision of what you can do with lace.  She uses colored thread to create images on found objects (usually sticks).  She creates incredibly detailed images by hand sewing them into the designs that she wants.






So what do you think of her art?  Do you think they are sculptures?  If not, what type of category would you put them in?  Is this something that you would like to try?  Which one is your favorite or which one is your least favorite?

  5. I can't imagine how much time it took for them to make just a little piece like this. I would think you would have to have a steady hand to be able to do this as well. It would be cool to know how to make these.

  6. I think they are sculptures. I think it would be really hard to create this. I think the horse is the one that looks the best.

  10. I can't imagine how long it took this person to make this. I surely couldn't make this. I think the horse looks the best out of them all.

  11. These works look like they take a lifetime of practice and a truly outstanding amount of skill to do. The way they use the strings to make it have a really awe inspiring color change is really cool. I also like they use the objects like a small stick to convey the shape of it too, rather than just having it hang there off of something.

  24. so much detail that is put into these art pieces , this would honestly frustrate me to the max, i really dig the detail that people added to their pieces .

    ReplyDelete
  25. My first look at these confused me. I didn't really know what they were but they are awesome. That would probably be so hard to do with strings.

  27. I think this is really cool. I don't know where people can find the time to do this. It looks like it would take along time to do one small thing so i don't know how someone would not lose interest in making it.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I don't think I would want to try it but it looks neat. I can't sew at all so doing that would be very difficult.

    ReplyDelete
  38. This looks really hard to do but really awesome I like how they used different colors to go with the animals and people.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I really like the last one it looks cool. The first 3 are really bad in my opinion. They look really creepy and i don't like that kind of art.

    ReplyDelete
  40. This probably took a long time to do and i don't know how they were able to sit there and do this for hours,maybe even days.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I wouldn't want to make one of these because it would take a long time. I like that it has lots of colors though. I think that they are kinda creepy.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I think these are very cool, but i wouldn't want to make one because it is very hard and would be hard.

    ReplyDelete
  43. These look impossible to make. You would have to be very skilled with string/lace to be able to make one of these. I wouldn't even know where to start since the designs aren't symmetrical or basic shaped.

    ReplyDelete
  44. This is really cool you could make a lot of fun and neat things with this, but it seems like a lot of work to do in class and would take a long time. I dont think we should do it in class

    ReplyDelete
  45. This art style really does give new life to dreamcatchers. There is a whole lot to do with this art style. I would definitely use this to create like a series of stories.

    ReplyDelete
  49. These are cool, but they are kind of weird. It must have taken lots of work to make these. They probably took a lot of time to make.

    ReplyDelete
  50. That looks like a really fun project. But really hard to do. Probably takes a lot of thread and experience.

    ReplyDelete
  51. these look like indian artifacts and they are cool looking. i would like to try it but i feel like it would take a long time and i would get frustrated. i wish i could get lost in art like some of these artists.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I like how they have an ancient feel to them. They also really do genuinely remind me of how our ancestors kept records of things before written language existed.

    ReplyDelete
  53. these are really cool. i've always wanted to try these string things. they have an old feel to them and i like that.

    ReplyDelete
  54. This would look good at the end, but getting to the end would be hard. This project would take lots of time. But it would be worth it.

    ReplyDelete

  59. i definitely think this counts as a sculpture, I don't know if this would take a long time or a short time, it looks really hard but at the same time i don't think that you would be able to stop until you were done because it would unravel
