About wire sculpting
Wires are incredibly versatile as an art medium. Sturdy yet malleable, they lend both strength and fluidity to the piece. While a single wire, in its unaltered state, represents the most basic of visual elements—the line—wires can be molded into any shape, transforming from the two-dimensional line to a three-dimensional sculptural form. Wire sculptors often create a loose outline of the shape they envision, followed by looping, coiling, braiding, weaving, crocheting, and other various techniques to give the sculpture volume and strength.
