Installation: Giant Suspended Nets


Giant Suspended Net Installations by Janet Echelman

While walking through a village in India during her stint as a Fulbright Scholar, Echelman was struck by the colorful variety of nets used by local fisherman.  Her work is inspired by epiphany to create these massive net sculptures around the world.

Echelman is currently working on her largest piece ever, a seven hundred foot long net that will be exhibited in Vancouver to commemorate the thirtieth anniversary of the TED Conference.  She’s currently seeking funding via Kickstarter to fund the project.
