Painter, sculpture, poet Mira Schendel has just finished exhibiting at the Tate Modern. I liked the soft sculptor she presented using fishing wire, rice paper as sheets sewn together, and twisted to make connecting knots. she uses similar materials in her works, all similar colours and tones, copper, ochre, bronze, whites and creams, all very delicate and fragile. The rice paper hanging presenting lettering, both cut out and drawn on, although not spelling real words, which i find particularly charming. Scendel writes "The back of transparency lies in front of you...and the 'other world' turns out to be this one."

The simplicity of her work is beautiful and relaxing. http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2013/sep/29/mira-schendel-tate-modern-review
