DIY Inspiration: Pip Culbert’s “Seams” ArtLooking for interesting wall art that makes a statement? Pip Culbert’s disassembled objects are inspiring.From Fouladi Projects here: Pip Culbert’s artwork deconstructs every day fabric objects and pares them down to their essential seams. In this process of reduction, She re-contextualized the object, be it a button-down shirt or a quilt, into a weightless line drawing, still familiar but now freed of their ephemeral limitations. She liberates the confinement prescribed by function and transports the textile into a lyrical, poetic dimension. Her work embraces the minimalist ideal of less is more, reminding us that there are infinite possibilities in the space between the lines.Pip Culbert lived from 1938 - 2016.If you are interested, there’s a really good essay about Pip Culbert’s art by Artspace here.Here is more of Pip Culbert’s art:Purple Bag, 2010nylon, zip, label, pins600 x 500mmCourtesy Pip Culbert Estate and HopkinsonMossman, AucklandOpen Shirt – limited Edition – Mr Harry,1992Cotton and buttons1030 x 1000mmChartwell Collection, Auckland ArtGallery Toi o Tamaki, 1994Detail of “Mr Harry”Parachute without bomb, 2014nylon silk1460mm diameterCourtesy Pip Culbert Estate and HopkinsonMossman, AucklandPup Tent, metal, rope 2400 x 3650mm 2013, Christchurch Art Gallery -- source link
