Installation, Painting — By Unknown Artist on July 7, 2009 at 4:02 am

New York based artist Katherine Mangiardi’s paintings of lace, which of handiwork possessed a beauty of process and attention to detail that is becoming vacant in an age of machine-generated reproductions, are unbelievably haunting, like the delicate, filmy fabric of a ghost, or like the painfully decaying lace of an antique dress. Recently, She has started to create installations in historical homes in order to link the historic objects which fascinate her with the people and places from which they originated.
