TITLE: Birds In A Boneyard-An Aviary Of Abundance
Birds In A Boneyard-An Aviary Of Abundance: This installation is a ghost story. In the midst of an oasis in the Chara Sands, a widower has traveled many miles to hear his dead wife speak to him. Telling him to move on, but never forget her.
“My medium is wool. Each piece is made using a single needle felting technique. It’s a slow process but results in a particular texture. The armatures are made from chicken wire which make them light and flexible.
Every new installation comes with challenges, but adequate produces dull work and an artist should never remain comfortable.”
