Janet Echelman Sculpting Urban airspace 2011

Janet Echelman is another supreme example of creating a sublime masterpiece of what could be classed as banal fishing nets .She found the inspiration for these masterpieces while on a art sojourn to India .She would watch the local Indian fishermen cast their nets out from their boats, which in itself is like a visual opera , then re-developed that visual stimuli in Urban Air Space .The whole procedure invovled many technical aspects , lighting engineers , the textile people involved , the rigging , and this is another fantastic example of the extraordinary possibility of transforming public space , and simultaneously transforming human consciousness and is in a way a an important component to the human expierence .These public spaces that we as humans use to socialize in are an integral part of subconcious socialization , which is instrumental for the mental health of all society.By beautifying our public spaces , we the occupier become more beautiful .
