Just discovered Rachel Denny’s work from a book by Danielle Krysa (The Jealous Curator) – Creative Block: Get Unstuck, Discover New Ideas, Advice and Projects from 50 Successful Artists.  Great book that features several fiber artists along with artists of many other disciplines.  Each artist’s section has a few interview questions, but I love this question put to her and her response:

JC – What do you love about sculpture?

RD – I find sculpting challenging and satisfying.  I have tried just about every medium, and like that I can use methods from all of these experiences with sculpture.  I love working with tactile materials like wool, wood, clay and whatever else catches my fancy.

I’m very intrigued by her work – it is simple, yet complex.  It is direct, but has a mysterious story behind it.  It is hard, and soft.  It is organic, but manmade.  Perhaps you are intrigued by her work as well…we would love to hear your opinion!
