It's dumb really how lowly wire can turn to art in the hands of some French artists, and look like, well, wire in my two left hands hands. I tried to twist and turn the darn thing and coaxed it into something fabulous. All I ended up with was low self-esteem.
Marie Christophe is an artist whose sculpture-objects are graceful and whimsical. She uses iron wires, ceramic and crystal. Here are a few of her one-of-a-kind chandeliers.
She also creates wire sculptures. Check them out here.
Here, a few photographs taken of her atelier. There’s color there! Yeahh!
But wait, here is more color: She has worked on projects for Dior, Baccarat, Hermes and Cartier.
Here is an example of work she did for Roger Vivier.
.., I bet she doesn't even curse at her pliers unlike some people. My pliers won't even look at me anymore.
