sculptures and installations that range in sizes: from tiny knots that can fit into the palm of your hand to room-sized installations that are sought after by private collectors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But though her techniques are simple, the result is anything but. &#8220;I make sculpture and installations that elevate the vernacular and inspire awe and understanding,&#8221; she writes on her website. &#8220;In the context of knots, I bring aesthetics to the intersection of function, science, and history to illuminate what\u2019s most fascinating about knots: the journey of the line.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chien is best known for her 2016 work,&nbsp;<em>The Year of Knots<\/em>, in which she learned a new knot every day for a year. <em>&#8220;The Year of Knots<\/em> isn\u2019t about inventing, but rather about learning how knots work\u2014and about revealing their beauty to others,&#8221; reads her website. &#8220;She wanted to bring out the aesthetic side of this functional practice through focusing on a single knot a day and helping others to really see it, separated from the context in which it might be used.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out some of her creative work in the gallery below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-instagram wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div
