String Theory

 
 
 
I love these sculptures by the Tjanpi Desert weavers in the exhibition entitled "String Theory". They are human size or a little smaller and look very dramatic in the dark room where they are spot lit.  They are made out of a variety of materials including feathers, wire and string.
  This show at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney brings together over 30 Aboriginal artists and artist groups from across Australia. There are paintings, prints, baskets, dolls, installations, fishing nets, fish traps, photography and more all in the theme of string.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 One of the great things about going to the Museum of Contemporary Art is the location, right at the heart of the city, at Circular Quay.  There is a café on the top floor with magnificent views.  Here are a couple of snaps taken today post BLT sandwich.
