Emma Bird Wirework Sculptures
A gift for a very special couple doesn't get any more enchanting or romantic as these beautiful wirework sculptures by Emma Bird.
Created by using wire to 'draw in the air', Emma uses the minimal amount of lines to suggest the highlights of each creation and its character. The intricate wirework is then presented on an oak wood block.
Emma works with her hands, pliers and cutters alone to create her pieces, valuing the purity of the process avoiding the temptation to solder or glue wires together.
When placed against a light coloured wall, these pieces cast beautiful shadows which create a multi-dimensional effect (see details in images 3 + 5).
Each piece also features a sneaky artist's signature in wire, hidden within the image.
ABOUT THE MAKER: Emma Bird studied Art at Canterbury Christ Church College, and now works from her studio in Sussex. Emma loves being creative, particularly working in wire to produce both 3D and 2D pieces. Her work celebrates the beauty of creation, the people and animals that she sees around her, as well as the interaction between them. Wire gives Emma the freedom to draw in the air; to her it is so intriguing to see the line hold its shape without losing a sense of flow and delicacy.
