Thousands of Plastic Straws Create Evocative 3D Art

Ryan Nance April 24, 2013

Italian artist Francesca Pasquali has created these evocative 3D forms with thousands of plastic straws, with the end result reminiscent of the Organic Forms in Glass we saw a few weeks ago.

​The artist explains:

 "Even if plastc is a new material, the tecnique of interlacing it in preconstituted nets is connected to the past. It makes it live again in the shape of sculpture, which spreads out towards the space around, creating various texturzsed effects. Observing nature itself, I transfer the essential being of it. The interlacing forms trasform the industrial material into soft and sensual shapes."
