Hankering for Yarn

Lace Fence

by Noreen on April 6th, 2008

Synchronicity is amazing.

I was just reading about the common root of two opposing words:

Hospitality vs Hostility

and then the link for this amazing and beautiful piece of work was sent to a list that I belong to:

Lace Fence 

I am awestruck by the lace fence. As a lacemaker, I KNOW how incredibly difficult creating the lace fence had to have been. The technical virtuosity is stunning.  It took a great deal of power to manipulate the wire to create the lace on that scale.

But, the metaphor behind it is  equally, or perhaps even more powerful.  It’s a potent reminder that we really can approach our environments in more mindful ways and create more beauty.  Functional DOES NOT have to equal ugly.
