Trek Craft

I’m not a fan crafter. I would possibly like to be but I don’t think I’m obsessed enough about anything to want to make fan craft. Unless of course, if you count dead radical feminists

But I have so much admiration for fan crafters ’cause they make such cool stuff. I reckon it must be the extra level of emotion and obsession that goes into the design process.

So I have to point out these awesome Star Trek crafts by Devorah Sperber. This pieces are based on the Star Trek Transporter and are made out of hanging glass beads

I am so impressed with the technical aspects of these pieces. Not only has she absolutely encapsulated the visual dynamic of the transporter but the accuracy in detail is phenomenal. I would love to have one of these hanging in the back door. Doesn’t really go with the house but I would still love it.

If you’re in New York, go see this exhibition, it’s on until April the 26th.
