Listed by: Nancy Rakoczy Mobile: 917-683-0587 Homepage: http://www.NancyRakoczy.com Info: Nancy Rakoczy is a fine artist who knits recycleable plastic bags into unique garments from nontraditional, discarded materials. The knitting process serves to convert the plastic bags from nearly invisible detritus, into objects of artistic status. Where once the form, function and texture were considered immutable, the bags’ transformation into wearable objects suggests a similar change for the wearer.
