24. Janet Echelman builds living, breathing sculpture
environments that respond to the forces of nature —
wind, water and light — and become inviting focal points
for civic life. Exploring the potential of unlikely materials,
from fishing net to atomized water particles, Echelman
combines ancient craft with cutting-edge technology to
create her permanent sculpture at the scale of buildings.
Experiential in nature, the result is sculpture that shifts
from being an object you look at, to something you can
get lost in.
Recent prominent works include: “Her Secret is Patience”
spanning two city blocks in downtown Phoenix, “Water
Sky Garden” which premiered for the 2010 Vancouver
Winter Olympics, “She Changes” on the waterfront in
Porto, Portugal, and “Every Beating Second” in San
Francisco Airport’s new Terminal Two.
Recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship, Echelman was
named an Architectural Digest 2012 Innovator for
“changing the very essence of urban spaces.” Her TED
talk “Taking Imagination Seriously” has been translated
into 34 languages and is estimated to have been viewed
by more than a million people worldwide.
Biography

25. Artist’s story
American artist Janet Echelman reshapes urban airspace
with monumental, fluidly moving sculpture that responds
to environmental forces including wind, water, and
sunlight.
Echelman first set out to be an artist after graduating
college. She moved to Hong Kong in 1987 to study
Chinese calligraphy and brush-painting. Later she moved
to Bali, Indonesia, where she collaborated with artisans
to combine traditional textile methods with
contemporary painting.
When she lost her bamboo house in Bali to a fire,
Echelman returned to the United States and began
teaching at Harvard. After seven years as an Artist-in-
Residence, she returned to Asia, embarking on a
Fulbright lectureship in India.
With the promise to give painting exhibitions around the
country, she shipped her paints to Mahabalipuram, a
fishing village famous for sculpture. When her paints
never arrived, Echelman, inspired by the local materials
and culture, began working with bronze casters in the
village.
She soon found the material too heavy and expensive for
her Fulbright budget. While watching local fishermen
bundling their nets one evening, Echelman began
wondering if nets could be a new approach to sculpture:
a way to create volumetric form without heavy, solid
materials.
Today Echelman has constructed net sculpture
environments in metropolitan cities around the world.
She sees public art as a team sport and collaborates with
a range of professionals including aeronautical and
mechanical engineers, architects, lighting designers,
landscape architects, and fabricators.
She built her studio beside her hundred-year-old house,
where she lives with her husband David Feldman and
their two children.

26. Studio Statement
Studio Echelman explores the cutting edge of sculpture,
public art, and urban transformation. Assembled and led
by internationally recognized sculptor Janet Echelman,
the design team focuses on the development and
creation of large-scale artworks.
The permanent and temporary projects draw inspiration
from ancient craft and modern technology. Using
materials from woven fiber to atomized mist, the studio
creates living, breathing pieces that respond to the forces
of nature — wind, water and light.
By combining meaning with physical form, it strives to
create a visceral experience in diverse city environments,
accessible to all. These sculpture environments embody
local identity and invite residents to form a personal and
dynamic relationship with the art and place. Each project
becomes intimately tied to its environment through the
use of local materials and working methods, thus
strengthening neighborhood connections and promoting
a distinctive civic character.
The design team spans the globe. Studio Echelman is
privileged to collaborate with brilliant aeronautical and
mechanical engineers, architects, lighting designers,
landscape architects, and fabricators.
