"I put my heart and soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process"

Hand knit sculptures of the human brain

Picture
​Psychiatrist Dr Karen Norberg, of National Bureau of Economic Research in Cambridge, Massachusetts, spent a year knitting an anatomically correct replica of the human brain. I think this is a beautiful authentic piece that has been carefully knitted to the same replica as the brain. The use of colours show each part of the brain. I noticed the more stitches have been used has created this rippling effect. It would be interesting to explore this by visually looking at nature; structure and fragility of certain plant species, recreating something everlasting that will not wither away in a short space of time.
