Helga Stentzel is a Siberian-born artist working in a variety of media including illustration, photography, video and stop motion animation. One of her more whimsical projects involved hanging laundry on a clothesline to resemble animals. In her artist statement, Stentzel wrote “To me, household surrealism is about finding magic in the mundane, seeing beauty in imperfections, and connecting to our reality in a new way. I love noticing playful similarities - be it a sweater on a clothing line looking like a horse or a slice of bread resembling a dog’s head… I hope that my art will help people to connect with their inner child and rediscover the joy of savoring little visual delights in and outside their homes.”

Your challenge for this week is make your own clothesline creation.
