Description

Norma Minkowitz's sculptures are unabashedly complicated; she designs and devises complex pathways in fiber using the traditional and long sidelined technique of crocheting. This is not crocheting that ends up as an ornamental doily or antimacassar; by stiffening the fibers she is able to produce intricate knots and loops that hold and support each other to create translucent air-filled three-dimensional forms. Portfolio collection, vol. 35.
