Mixing the original Star Trek with stuff from The Next Generation series? A abdomination some might say, much in the lines of a ferengi mating with a Cardassian.

The true purist might have an issue putting artwork portraying classical moments from the original Star Trek TV series in the same room as new inventios like the holodeck and the not-so retro command deck from The Next Generation. Well, not so in the mind of American artist Devorah Sperber!



Devorah uses signature "Thread Spool" pieces in her works comprised of chenille stems and beads. Her latest exhibition 'Mirror Universe' introduces a series of standing figures and interiors composed of semi translucent beads; depicting the the original Star Trek characters in classic scenes and in the process of “beaming up”, plus newer "interior pieces" from the Starship Enterprise. Awesome shit!
