Ruth Asawa: Undulating Wire Sculpture: Structural Form from Drawings

Ruth Asawa:  "My Curiosity was aroused by the idea of giving structural form to the images in my drawings. These forms come from observing plants, the spiral of a snail, seeing light through insect wings, watching spiders repair their webs in the early morning, and seeing the sun through the droplets of water suspended from the tips of pine needles while watering my garden."
