i am in a group exhibition that opens next week. this is the latest piece or pieces that i have made for the show. this piece is called from the garden.
i had the wooden bases turned by a local woodie almost 2 years ago and it has taken me this long to do something with them. i made the glass domes to fit, and collected some interesting specimens from my garden.
with some help from a friend i made some simple metal display units for each one.
the dome sits over top protecting the item (and making the more special).
this is them all lined up and done.
here are a few close ups.

this work feels kind of "hippy" to me, but i think i like it. i was going to add some text to the domes but in the end i wasn't sure what text to put on them and i like the simplicity of it.
the last thing to do is price them. (the hardest part).
more images on the exhibition once it is up and done.
