Acrobat Basket

Inspired by trapeze and high wire artists, the "Acrobat Basket" is light and airy. Starting with its asymmetrical rim, this basket playfully visualizes a delicate balance between its many shapes. Made with annealed steel wire, the colorful squares, rectangles and triangles are created from layers of colorful papers adhered together, with watercolors and colored pencils adding subtle patterns to each paper tile. The "Acrobat Basket" is strong, able to hold objects if wished, or nothing at all. Finished with a clear sealant for use.
