I have ALWAYS seen her work in SO many magazines.....and blogs and tumblrs....but until today didn't know her name...until my friend Val texted it to me...Sandra Backlund {http://www.sandrabacklund.com/} creates AMAZING knitwear...things that swallow and envelope...sharp edges and seemingly impossible volume.....Her work is so obviously connected to sculpture with how it interacts with the human form so harmoniously...or forceably......at one moment someone looks comfortable in he pieces...the next as if they are being swallowed by some soft woolen monster....
Alarmingly modern without being boring or redundant...Her rk is some of the most thrillin and inspiring i've seen in a long time!!!! Please check her out!!!
XOXO
Even clothespins become objects of Couture.....
