Not Your Mama's Macrame

Technically, it's crochet, not macrame, but I couldn't resist the alliteration. It's the work of German artist Patricia Waller; more of which here. What does it all Mean, you ask? This guy knows:

The artist's crochet sculptures are initially disturbing. However, they usually play a double role and are hidden. They are a background system of signs and charades that cannot always be interpreted satisfactorily. But Patricia Waller always ensures that her audience is given visual experiences full of relish and ambition. "With all of my work, I try to create new and different forms of perception and levels of association for the beholder by interventions and altered forms of presentation..." she states.
