Caitlin T. McCormack

I love it when craft, fine art and photography all come together. Caitlin McCormack has produced these eerie sculptures from gathered materials such as lace and string and has crafted them into skeletal creatures indigenous to the East Coast of America.

"The act of stiffening intricately crocheted cotton string with glue produces material that is structurally similar to delicate bone tissue. The string implemented in this process can be viewed as the basic cellular unit of fabrication, and by utilizing media and practices inherited from my deceased relatives, I aim to generate emblems of my diminishing bloodline, embodied by each organism's skeletal remains."
