thread embroiders space. softly.

faig ahmed's thread installation has stopped me this afternoon. i'm seeing some inventive and creative uses for spools of thread lately. and this one takes the cake...
anthropologie, with all of their amazing store windows and uses of found objects has a thread theme going right now. at least in their store in harvard square. i could have stared at it for like an hour straight. threads, colored threads offer something soft and promising to a space. as if something amazing is about to happen or about to be spun or be created. threads hold aniticipation for me. not to get too deep or too analytical about threads you understand. it's just my thought. enjoy!
