Elsa Mora
Tuesday, July 15th, 2008Elsa Mora is hard at work! She is probably best known for her detailed paper cuts like the one above, but I really enjoyed the execution and arrangement of her porcelain work below also.


She is making lovely work in a variety of mediums, so go have a look!
Richard Saja
Wednesday, July 9th, 2008
Although Richard Saja is probably best known for his work unhorsing toile, we were also compelled by his embroidered timepiece for the Make Time for a Green Cause benefit.
According to Saja’s site, “Reading outwards from the center, the numerals are in UPC code, Braille, Postal code and Morse code.”
Saja has done quite a lot of engaging work. If you see him, you should give him a handshake.

You can see more of his work at the Galerie Lelong.

Another great permutation in the revival of textile arts as design via Inger of Hello Craft Lovers. I would be interested to know more about the meaning of the Swedish folklore represented. (AO starts quietly singing L.L. Cool J classic Mama Said Knock You Out).
