In effect, some of her framed pieces, reemembered me contemporary lace, today made by many lacemakers. It came to my mind the discussion recently hold on this list, about origin of laces I thought that it could be of interest of those people on Arachne interested in textil art, to see Esther Chacon's works, so I have uploaded a resume of the Exhibition. Those works that can be the most representatives related with lace. I shall remove the pictures in some days. Here it is the link: http://www.geocities.com/carolgallego/estherchacon.html Kind regards. Carolina. Barcelona. Spain.

Thanks a lot Carolina for this information and these beautiful images. Is this finger lace? And is finger lace the same thing as macrame? - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here. For help, write to arachnemodera...@yahoo.com

Yes, she explains that she bases her works on ancient native South American knotting art. She is originary of Xile.

It looks like a sculpted portrait-head. Flashing symbol, then?
