Architecture, Future Past


Center is black iron fence piece.
Tracing around with pearl, freshwater and vintage
silver gilded blue windshield glass
opaque glass
gold gilded clear glass
gold pigment
silver pigment
variegated foil
antiquing paint
on found wood in building-ish shape
Exploring the materials of the past surrounded by layers of years, additions, subtractions, embellishments.
The things we throw away reclaimed and elevated, celebrating the sensuous shape of the fence with sediment of shiny things.

this is about 8 x 24"
