Rachel Hunnicutt :: Fiber Art

Barnacles, baby!  I don't know about you, but I am highly intrigued by these hand-crocheted and wood-mounted pieces from textile artist Rachel Hunnicutt.  Taking traditional techniques and applying them to new forms is endlessly fascinating to me and Ms. Hunnicutt does it with a certain amount of flair!

Inspired by "organic, repeating shapes found in nature... barnacles, coral, fungus, clusters of seed pods", she creates intricate arrangements one pod at a time.  A labor of love, no doubt!  Check out more of her work right here.
