Ornate Leaf Sculpture and Crochet Art by Susanna Bauer

June 18, 2020 by mbonneville

Beautiful work worth sharing. Susanna Bauer creates these works of art from sticks, leaves and pieces of wood together with crochet woven ornately and with delicate balance.

There is a fine balance in my work between fragility and strength; literally, when it comes to pulling a fine thread through a brittle leaf or thin dry piece of wood, but also in a wider context – the tenderness and tension in human connections, the transient yet enduring beauty of nature that can be found in the smallest detail, vulnerability and resilience that could be transferred to nature as a whole or the stories of individual beings.

You can find more of Bauer’s works on her website and Instagram.

What you see is not always what you are looking at

All the balls are the same color — and that color is *brown*! pic.twitter.com/JriPXHnNYR

This is amazing. If you cover the colored lines that pass over each ball, you’d see the balls are all the same color. Cones, rods, and brain are all playing a game!
