I went to Google.com and found things I want to go back and look at! But I only went to 2 pages so didn't find what you were looking for. When I have more time I will go back. I can probably spend a lot of time looking at 'screen wire sculpture' on Google.
Thanks for the idea--it sent me there.

I was interested in seeing what you described...All I found was this....

Hope this is what you are looking for

bookit, I know what you are talking about and I want to do this too. I made a tree last xmas by folding the screen into a triangle , attached to a stick , filled in with ceramic morter, then painted. Worked o.k. but a little heavy. Right now, I am trying different things to fill in with and my next will be flour and water. (simple if it works)Have you found out what to use? Barb in Ar.
