Artist Chiharu Shiota wraps objects from floor to ceiling in black wool. The result is stunning and leaves you curious about the object entangled. Some of her works are on display in New York at the moment. I am dying to make it over to the Goff + Rosenthal Gallery while her works are still showing.

This weekend is Socrates Sculpture Park and the Noguchi Museum’s 6th annual kite making workshop. This year bring your old recycled grocery bags and turn them into high flying beauties. Kite designs are provided by Miwa Kiozumi and Marco Scoffier who will draw inspiration from the parks view of the Manhattan skyline. Participants will have the opportunity to build and decorate their kites, then fly them in the Park.
