“Taking Imagination Seriously”

At very first moment, I am just thinking of the pictures those include Janet Echelman’s work are the after-effect images. When I found out that all the works are ‘real’ and floating in the sky, I was stunned by the ‘art pieces’.
Coming up with different materials outside the box is always the issue for artists. In this case, the artist was inspired by ‘fisherman’ from her daily experience. It’s quite cool that she was initially worried about the cost that she has been spent on her bronze project. Accidentally, the idea comes!

Facing technical problems and the obstacles that happened every day, she collaborated with many of experts from different fields and learning lessons from every trials. I would say artist is the one who take actions to make imaginations or make daily experiences specifically. (or abstract Lol) Her work makes me feel illusory, imaginative and free. It’s like the combination between illusion and reality.
