Welcome to SFMOMA’s virtual Second Sundays, a monthly series that includes a reading with a librarian from the San Francisco Public Library, followed by a guided art activity you can do at home. In this installment, we’re focusing on Ruth Asawa! Tune in for a story reading below, and then make an art project inspired by the influential Bay Area artist.
Asawa is perhaps best known for her wire sculptures, which she thought of as three-dimensional line drawings in space. In this project, we make one of our own! Watch the video to see how it turns out, and find step-by-step, written instructions below.
