Seeker Guardian 2: Holder of Prayers
Mixed Media Assemblage Date: 2012 12”H x 13 1/2”W 11”D Bible Concordance, doll head and hands, wing, rusted parts, spindles, prayer cards, beads, chain, drawer pull, doll glasses, wooden cylinders. This mischievous-faced Guardian holds the images which are my true prayers within a Bible Concordance that gives each word in the Bible and where it appears in the text. I grew up Roman Catholic and disentangled myself from the dogma by concentrating on my spirituality and connection to the Divine. These connections were based more in images than in the words of my catechism, more in the feelings I had in nature, and within my body. |

Dancing Through the Questions Mixed Media Assemblage Date: 2012 Altered doll head and arms, globe, camera pencil sharpener, turquoise skull beads, ceramic box lid, shoe stretchers, ribbon and tulle, wire. My 3rd Seeker Guardian contains the whole world within herself. She makes sure to examine each thing closely, and to document all of it, all the while dancing through the existential questions that run through our lives. |
