Industry

Part of the knot works series 'wool people'. Wool is tied in a simple knot and hung on the wall. The shapes emphasize the springiness in the wool and appear as switches, dials, springs, levers, levels, animated, mechanized, in operation, perhaps some kind of automated machine, calling to mind Metropolis, where workers are driven by the machines, or perhaps some kind of physical work-out.
