When visual sculpturer Janet Echelman needed a working studio to produce her visual
art, she consulted with DS-Sewing to produce her unique creations. DS-Sewing can make anything that you
can conceptualize form any material. In this case, Janet Echelman needed special materials to make visible
the real and imaginary volume of internal airspace of human bodies and architecture. She needed to build
this sculpture from diaphanous, flexible material so that viewers can see the external and internal
surfaces simultaneously as well as see these surfaces move and change shape through time. The challenge
was to find the proper material to get these desired effects.
