Kinetic Crocs

Kirsty's a fave of mine and she's been busy making kinetic cardboard crocodiles and dragons for her new show "Beware" at the Red Gallery in Melbourne 

(Runs from 15 June to 2 July).
 

It looks fun, don't miss it if you live anywhere near!

Kirsty Loves Cardboard

Melbourne-based artist and architect Kirsty Fletcher loves cardboard, and I love what Kirsty does with it!

Especially since her sculptures and collages are often made from reclaimed packaging and ephemera such as beer cartons, boxes, met-cards and salvaged objects.

 

 

And especially since her work frequently features kinetic moving parts

I think my favourite piece is Heading Home (for Mum's birthday), a small-scale cardboard sculpture depicting one of her most treasured experiences. You can read about it here.

 I hope you'll enjoy exploring her blog as much as I did, and give Kirsty a shout if you're interested in anything, some of her work is for sale.
