Haystack Veil- Philip Beesley





From Philip Beesley's website:

Haystack Veil is a landscape of cut saplings, thirty thousand twigs cut and bundled into a knit veil floating over a moss and lichen covered cliff alongside the Atlantic Ocean. Haystack Veil bears on the land following primordial topography, a cloak over the earth. The project was developed as a collaboration between Philip Beesley and Philadelphia artist Warren Seelig in 1998, working with a group of textile students at the renowned Haystacks Mountain School for the Crafts in Maine
