A tiny picture in the latest GEO magazine caught my eye. I’ve seen pictures before of the art of Deborah Sperber composed entirely of spools of sewing thread. It really is quite extraordinary. I can’t begin to imagine how you go about assembling the huge numbers of cotton reels needed to produce the finished works. I guess there is a lot of planning that goes into the production of each art work.
You can see photos of the works here.
The art works brought to mind a large piece of pavement art we saw on one of our trips to Salamanca to learn Spanish. It was a large cirular piece which also had to be viewed through a special viewing lens to be seen properly. Unfortunately it was too difficult to photograph being under a pergola tent and surrounded by crowd barriers, so there is no photo to post.
