Pressed for Time

Felt Construction

Felting is an ancient process - predating the invention of weaving - which has been rediscovered by contemporary fibre artists. This sculptural piece, a decidedly non-functional clothes iron (and ironing board), makes a witty and speculative statement about a very mundane chore. Is Lyn Pflueger asking you to spend a little more time enjoying art and a little less time ironing your clothes?
