Bone Panels
The panels contain fragments of hewn slate, dusted and primed so that the original surface of the stone is left intact. Each reveals a hidden shape or form which guides the application of bones and other found objects. The bones were collected on the beaches of a dying lake and are the remainders of birds, fish and deer that were buried beneath the sands. Leaves, petals and other bits were culled from my garden. Most of these panels include a microtale, vignette or poem on the back that complements the work.
