Cool Garden Edging images

Posted on August 25, 2010 by admin

Check out these garden edging images:

Polaroid: Garden Edging + Blue Wire
garden edging

Image by danagraves
A different configuration of the edging & wire sculpture is shown in this Polaroid. I was able to loop the edging three times & hook the corkscrew-looking wire around the longest loop.

Shot on an angle to catch more curves. Recently scanned that image & added a little saturation…

See a 1990s Southern California version of these pieces here.

Double Exposure: Edging + Wire
garden edging

Image by danagraves
Wandering through a hardware store to buy nails or something. And just looking around…

When a small roll of blue aluminum wire caught my eye. Then I saw some shiny metal garden edging. Had to put them together somehow…

I first installed this ‘Garden Edging + Blue Wire’ sculpture in my Montrose Houston apartment. It has moved with — & been photographed by — me ever since.
