next week i have to report to the brooklyn courthouse for jury duty so i’ve been looking for something to take my mind off the hours i’ll be spending in that room. i’m happy to be doing my civic duty, although i’m a little antsy about the idea of being stuck in one place for that long (at least i can post from the courthouse thanks to their wireless). but looking at these beautiful paper installations by rebecca niederlander completely sets my mind at ease. they look like delicate floating clouds that just happen to have landed on a window. there’s such an ethereal quality to them one can hardly help but to stare and wonder about how beautiful they would look in person. rebecca’s friend cristi sent me a link to her site and i haven’t stopped clicking through it since. if you’d like to read more about rebecca’s work (and see more gorgeous images, like the last image below from 2003) just click here. [thanks, cristi!]
