Inspiration ~ Fiber Artist Jerry Bleem

Remind me again why we’re depleting the earth’s resources and burying them in landfills, (2008) 62” x 83.5”

Fiber artist Jerry Bleem makes AMAZING art using AMAZING materials like staples, yes staples! The piece above is made from crocheted plastic bags. Imagine the vision it takes to see the potential beauty and usefulness in those!

  1. whoa...that's pretty!
    I'm wondering how he came across so many different colored bags though. :-)
    I've crocheted with plastic bags before, and there is quite a bit of prep work, so kudos to him for making something of this size.
