glazed ceramic, unglazed ceramic with verdigris wash, washed acrylic caulk, gilt circuitboard, red felt interior from marker, green glass droplet with gilding on reverse, pink glass rod, cleft black slate, carved clear acrylic, aluminum wire from harp string, found object from jigsaw, painted frame, glass
This all began with the piece of jigsaw puzzle found lying in a parking lot. All the other elements were added to the composition from my "bits'n'pieces" drawer — including the frame which someone else had discarded. All these elements were modified or trimmed 'found-objects' for other compositions but were rejected and tossed in the drawer. In other words, everything in the design except the puzzle piece is twice recycled.
