FIBER VASE
Walnut Claro + Braided Nylon Cord + Music Wire
In this form study I wanted to celebrate fiber and emphasize its many characteristics. I felt that the best way to emphasize its characteristics would be to have it contrast another material, wood. I find fiber's ability to be in tension to be quite beautiful and I wanted to make a vase that celebrated that quality. As illustrated in the video and the photos, this vase takes on somewhat of an interactive quality to it, inviting the user to have objects held up by the tension of the string (with a spring steel core)
