Consider Maria Nepomuceno's Untitled. Discuss this work's technique and the artist's process. How does this work blur the line between fine art and craft?
What will be an ideal response?
Working with fiber, Maria Nepomuceno uses colorful rope and beaded necklaces to construct quirky biomorphic forms in this work. Nepomuceno's art was profoundly influenced by the experience of giving birth and themes of fertility and generation are clearly present in Untitled. The piece is a hybrid of fine art (it is meant to be displayed in a museum) and craft art (the use of ropes, beads, and fabric).
