Fieltro Linda Brooks Hirschman

Me gusta mucho como esta artista americana Linda Brooks Hirschman trabaja de manera orgánica el fieltro generando tramas muy texturadas con la incorporación de hilos y telas sobre diferentes superficies. El factor de azar acompaña de manera espontánea la produción de sus objetos.

No es mi fuerte la traducción así que cito el texto de la página web de la artista donde explica los conceptos que acompañan a su producción:

" I am entangled in my art -- constructing fabric and combining it with yarns, mixed media and found natural materials to create fiber sculptures and installation pieces.
My work explores the mysterious forces of nature. Curious about both the constant rhythms and the unpredictability of nature, I have become fascinated with the concept of time passing.
My pieces can be frenzied, dark and disturbing; others are calm, solid and comforting. Each one is alive to me. Beauty and chaos live side by side.
As I become more adventurous and open in my personal life, my work becomes more experimental and spontaneous. Or is it the other way around?
My process is original — a combination of feltmaking, hand and machine sewing, sculpture, beadwork and basketry. I learn as I go, intuitively constructing my own cloth and exploring unconventional methods of manipulating the materials and creating texture. I enjoy each step of the process…. the wild initial joy of a new idea, the brief planning phase, experimenting with new techniques, journaling, the repetitious meditative phase, the nerve-wracking assembly, the focused meticulous resolution. Later, revelation, the layers of texture revealing deeper meaning.
No style or mentor has shown me the way; no formal art education. My art making is a deepening and passionate experience, encouraging me to step into the unknown, take chances, and remember who I am."
