Garden of Free Will Sculpture

On one of my nature walks I ripped my favourite lace skirt - at first I wanted to repair it but then thought better of it - I ripped it even more and used it as a foundation for this piece. Together with a sheer fabric garment as a foundation, I used a variety of materials such as vintage fabrics, beads, buttons, sequins, ribbons, etc to explore a theme of free will. The idea of free will liberates my soul and expands indefinitely my creative universe. It serves as a source of endless energy and creative exploration. Joy and fun are cultivated in the Garden of Free Will - please come and play here. Canvas pieces, a rice sack and a pillowcase were added, piece by piece, to this artwork, all machine-sewn together. Hand-stitched are floral and abstract fabric elements, some shapes are printed with flowers from my garden, some bead embroidery added to painted surfaces. Painted/printed elements sprayed for protection with non-gloss acrylic spray. Paper bead wire construction is somewhat flexible and can be bent into different shapes. This artwork uses pushpins, but you may use other anchors/nails to hang this piece. This artwork is lightweight (4 pounds) and will be shipped folded in bubblewrap layers, in between sturdy foam board pieces, and packed in a cardboard box.
