Gratitude in a Time of Exile

Year:

Media: Mixed Media: Pillars: plaster, burlap, salt, chicken wire, Altar: wood, dirt, plaster, wax, Stones: resin, wax, salt, Back wall: Latex Paint, Earth

Created for Gallery 5 in Boston, Massachusetts. The show was inspired by various old sacred sites and graves - with an altar filled with earth and a rib cage commemorating the sanctity of the individual. On the back wall hung a series of busts detailing the life of my great aunt during her deterioration from Alzheimers.
