The Enso Circle, First Term
The turtle woman is getting close. She is all bone with
hand dyed and colored clothing. Her underskirt is
gauze - which didn’t completely cover the wire mesh
skirt so I added some monks cloth. I may do that
differently if there’s another time.
The figure sitting on the rock is in Anne Boleyn
contemplating how to put her self back together. She’s
in the very early stages of construction. I also have a
third piece because I did say I was going to do three
pieces and I want to stay honest to myself but the turtle
woman has taken the most time so far.
Her story is beginning to emerge for me - something
about becoming a two legged to walk the earth with
them ...since they are so blind to their own destructive
ways. Perhaps she can help ...
