El que ha creado la artista japonesa Toshiko Horiuchi en el Hakone Open Air Museum de Saporo en Japon. Las reaciones de los chiquillos a ver sus esculturas fue la inspiracion para esta obra, que desborda color e imaginacion.
Crochet as the medium to create an unusual playground, is what japanese artist Toshiko Horiuchi has done in the Hakone Open Air Museum in Saporo, Japan. Dreamy, whimsical, strong and above a place full of fun.

Perfumes con gancho - Hooked perfum
Los que hizo Kate Talbot para este articulo en la revista Stylist. Lo unico que no me gusto fue que los describen como hechos a punto, algo que no se si es por desconocimiento o dejadez pero ocurre a menudo con piezas de ganchillo. A resaltar las ilustraciones textiles que hace la artista, versiones artesanas de obras de arte donde mezcla telas, pintura y ganchillo, creando unas piezas unicas, a la vista en su pagina web hungdrawnquoted y en la Maison Bisoux.
Great crochetted perfums done by textile artist Kate Talbot for Stylist magazine. Pity that the magazine ignored the artist description of her own work and described it as knitted. See more of her textile illustration work on her site.

Arte afieltrado - Felted Peacock Art
Me gustan los pavos reales desde que era niña, pues en casa teniamos varias parejas. Hoy di con otra fan de estos animales, en este caso en fieltro gracias a Eve Marshall. Las piezas se pueden ver en este video de la exhibicion de arte afieltrado que Eve Marshall mostro en la Galleria Carre. Mas piezas para ver y comprar e informacion sobre clases en su pagina web.
Another fan of peacock birds, felt artist Eve Marshall used them on some of her pieces for the exhibition at the Carre Gallery. See more details of her work and classes on her webpage / shop.

Susanna Bauer
Una artista alemana afincada en Cornwall que empareja materiales naturales con tecnicas artesanales como el ganchillo con resultados de lo mas inaudito y delicado. Para muestra su serie Hojas, donde las enmarca con ganchillo o las transforma en objetos tridimensionales sin dejarles perder su identidad natural al dejarles el peciolo. Mas obras en su pagina web. Fotos cortesia de la artista.
Contemporary art with a crafty edge combining dead/transient materia and more durable one, often results in unusual pairings of a delicate and somehow eerie beauty. Natural materials, manmade material and artisan crafts like crochet are the components of Sussana Bauer's stunning Leaves series. A Cornwall based german artist, who transforms them by encasing them into lace, doily like, or sewing them into tridimensional shapes while still keeping their natural identity by not removing their petiole . See more of her work over on her website. Photos courtesy of the artist.

Mary Delany at the Serpentine Gallery
Hoy aprovechando el solecito sali a correr al parque. De paso entre en la Serpentine Gallery a ver la ultima exhibicion, Rosemary Trockel, A Cosmos, 13 Feb - 7 Abr. Y cual no seria mi sorpresa cuando me encontre alli con tres collages de Mary Delany, una artista del siglo XVIII que descubri al leer su biografia "Paper Garden". Fumaria , Parnassia and Primula. Tambien tenia Ms Trockel unos cuadros de inspiracion lanera, de lo mas moderno y facil de recrear, unas tiras de lana de colores a tono, parecidos a estos que encontre en unos libros de manualidades de los 70s que tengo por casa.
Today I went for a run in the park. Once there I popped into the Serpentine Gallery to check their latest exhibition by Rosemarie Trockel , (13 Feb - 7 Apr). To my surprise I found they had three collages by Mary Delany as part of the exhibition, They had Fumaria, Parnassia and Primula. I am a fan of Mrs Delany ever since I read The Paper Garden a book about her life and work. I also found some more crafty inspiration from some wool canvases on display by Ms Trockel, which were very similar to these ones (see photo above) from a 1970s crafts book.

Palabras - Words
Hace una semana visite Words, Words, Words, la ultima exhibicion tematica en Selfridges, celebrando la lengua inglesa. Admire el arte mecanografico de Keira Rathbone, los accesorios de Tatty Devine, recogi mi palabra del Word-a-Coaster, jugue con la sopa de letras y vi la pared de libros en la sala Ultralounge. Volvi el viernes pasado para la sesion de bordado que dio la artista Sally Nencini usando diseños de su marido el tambien artista Peter Nencini.

Nina Braun
Boquiabierta que me deja la creatividad de esta artista alemana que utiliza el medio textil en sus creaciones. Sus piezas son de lo mas tierno, divertido y jugueton. La familia de monos me recuerda esta otra en el V&A de Londres.
Sus deportivos en punto (con tecnica de calcetines) y fieltro para el Virtual Shoe Museum son ademas practicos.
Tambien usa tecnicas de pathwork, a la hora de crear murales. Mas informacion en su pagina web , una entrevista en este video.
A new discovery , Nina Braun a german artist that uses craft techniques with a contemporary edge to create these tactile, funny, ironic pieces, ranging from sculptures, installations , drawings to tapestries. I love her sneaker slippers knitted with sock techniques and with added felt for the decorations. A talented creator who funded the first female owned german skateboarding company.

Arte Artesano - Crafty Art

El que nos muestra Seurat, con su madre en dos obras tituladas "La bordadora". Aunque una creo que mas bien parece estar tejiendo calcetines. Unos dibujos al pastel, de una belleza y simplicidad encantadora. La falta de definicion y las sombras en los tonos capturan tan bien la pose, serenidad,atencion y silencio que conlleva su tarea. Apenas podemos vislumbrar lo que esta haciendo, pero sabemos que esta bordando, tejiendo. Un poco como ocurre con las artesanias, apreciamos su belleza, quizas sepamos lo que son, una ligera idea de como fueron echas, aunque a menudo no son valoradas en su totalidad, a no ser que nosotras/os mismos nos dediquemos a hacerlas. Entonces es cuando sabemos del tiempo y dedicacion que lleva hasta la pieza mas pequeña y se aprecia en su entera totalidad.
Seurat shows us his mother in two pieces titled "The embroiderer". I think she is knitting socks in one of them. Pastel drawings, of great beauty and simplicity. The lack of definition and the tones of the shadows capture so well the pose, mood, and atmosphera with the attention centred on her task. We can barely see what she is doing, but we know it. A little bit what happens with crafts nowdays, appreciated completely when we ourselves create.
