good morning! i’m starting off a little slowly today because i indulged in a little sleeping-in so i’d be awake for our ‘design by the book’ panel in dumbo tonight (hope to see you there!). so my apologies for the late start. we have a guest blogger from portland, OR coming up this week so those posts will be up soon, but in the meantime, i wanted to kick off the day with these gorgeous feather installations from artist kate mccgwire. i saw them on my friend amanda’s tumblr page and have been sitting here with my jaw on the floor ever since. click here for more info on kate’s work.

Wow, thanks for the shout-out, friend!
I’ve been seeing these photos everywhere lately! They’re absolutely astounding. Congratulations to the artist!
Oh, they’re kinda creepy, like strange feathered snakes or something.
this is really interesting and creative! love it!
I’m curious: where does she get all the feathers from?
These are beautiful… and a bit creepy from a textural perspective for some reason. They look like they should have faces or heads.
Woww!! Stunning!
sometimes it sucks to be me.
i have deep dislike of touching and seeing feathers (not down, oddly enough). it kind of makes me feel sick.
but other than my hang up/ crazy streak, nice!
wow, beautiful.
at first I thought the first photo was of a dress, something Alexander McQueen would make…
Love the Gothic Dreamy feel of her work. It’s just beautiful… ~susan
I’m a huge fan of visual + tactile installation art ~ these are beautiful.
This is incredible. They look so fragile and solid solid at the same time. And very touchable.
Jaw.. dropping…
stunning
These are beautiful, but I am also curious where the feathers come from?
Wow!
Interesting…but yes, where does she get all the feathers from?
nope. not my thing. It’s creepy and depressing. Looks like human hair that kept growing after death.
