it got wicked hard after a while. I wanted each plain of lines to twist and bisect like in my drawings. it hurt my head to make it 3D. sometimes I'd get the pattern mixed up and have to tear the whole thing down half way through
did you just wrap the thread around the nails? the connections look really great in the photos.
i've been interested with work like this lately. i love how something linear can become surprisingly spatial.
you should google image search "naum gabo." he does some really badass sculpture that is sort of similar to what you did here. it would be a good resource to start thinking about 3d intersections w/ string/wire/lines.
word. I'm on it Naum Gabo. I've been interested in sculptures like this too. String is totally fragile and the connections are delicate but the piece occupies enough space to where people have to maneuver around it. I like that. I tied a knot at each connection to keep the string taught

awesome! what do you use to make the wall connections?
9 small nails at each point where they project off the wall
