Three sisters fibre art.

[Trent Watts]

My friend Lynn, is an accomplished fibre artist who recently took a felt sculpture class on making contemporary dancers. She chose to honour a sister that passed away in the last year by making a set of three sisters using the techniques she learned in the class. I became involved when she asked about bases for the three dancers. We chose to use an Autralian Banksia pod that I brought back many years ago. We cut the pod into three pieces, cleaned them up, applied finish and mounted the dancers. It was a really fun project and Lynn is very happy with the results.

Very interesting pieces - nice work with both the bases as well as the photography of them. The dancers are fascinating - your friend is an accomplished artist.

I second Alans comments, lovely work all around.

That's such incredible workmanship on her part. That's so cool that Lynn honored her sister in this way. If those pieces were for sale i could see them selling for 10's of thousands of dollars. Though I know nothing about that kind of art, but they compare well to the pricey art I have seen in many galleries.

That's so cool you could contribute the bases, they make for a great foundation and add a neat layer to the art. And of course a great job capturing them. Love the lighting in these, so well done.
