Devorah Sperber
Devorah Sperber, the mind behind these amazing works of art, has developed an art that seems to combine pointillism, optical illusion, painting, and sculpture. The work shown above are created using hundreds of spools of thread, hung vertically creating the effect of pointillism. Some of the thread creations are hung inverted so that as you look through a viewing sphere she as included a few feet away from each piece, the work looks upright and perfect as if you were looking at the real painting. Devorah Sperber has been in a multitude of shows, recently just ending one at MASS MoCA in Massachusettes, and starting January 2009, you will be able to see her work at the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico in San Juan.
