Eruption Necklace
found object, dyed, wool, felted, 57 x 7 x 4 inches
My
work is the apparatus to awake viewers and wearers of their own bodies and
evanescent life. In my work, I present grotesque, and peculiar, but oddly
appealing simulated body parts of appendages, representing rampart,
uncontrolled growth and decay. They are both sensual and strange, and suggest
an experience of the body that is altered by the tactile and visual
characteristics of the object.
