Fabric caught in the wind, yet frozen in time? Yep. These jaw-dropping pieces are the work of <a href=\"http:\/\/marelazacarias.com\/\">Marela Zacarias<\/a>, an artist currently based between Brooklyn, Seattle, and Mexico City. Okay, I already know you&#8217;re thinking&#8230;<em> &#8216;but what? how did she?&#8217;<\/em>&#8230; because that&#8217;s exactly what I was thinking! Here&#8217;s the answer:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Working with a labor &#8211; and research- intensive process merging sculpture with painting, Marela Zacar\u00edas moulds window screen and plaster to fabricate undulating forms with the quality of fabric, bodies filled with movement and expressive quality. The sculptures\u2019 surfaces are populated by socially committed geometric abstractions\u2013\u2013shapes and patterns born from the artist\u2019s study of the history and specificity of the site of work.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Brilliant, thoughtful, and beautifully executed. If you want to see Marela in action, there&#8217;s a great video from a couple of years ago on <a href=\"https:\/\/art21.org\/\">Art21<\/a>&#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/art21.org\/watch\/new-york-close-up\/marela-zacarias-goes-big-goes-home\/\">watch it right here<\/a>.
