proyecto de calaveras

This fun and creative project, Proyecto de Calaveras actually has a serious goal, to raise money to support our local rancheros who were losing dozens of livestock due to severe drought conditions.

My cow skull is designed with turquoise ceramic horns and is crawling with colorful ceramic dermestid beetles, an homage to the beauty of the cycle of life. He does need a name if anyone wants to come up with some creative suggestions!?

There is a Go Fund Me set up if you’d like to donate directly (note donation amounts are in pesos not dollars) or come down to Galeria Mangos in Todos Santos June 14-21, 11am-4pm to bid on a skull decorated by a local artist.

Last Chance to see the Spring Exhibit!

Please join us for the closing of Sticks + Stones | Palos + Piedras

Saturday May 31st 4pm – sunset

If you haven’t seen the show (or even if you have!) we invite you to come up and enjoy the final moments of our inaugural group spring exhibition. Walk through the sculpture garden, explore the studio, buy the art, and enjoy the food + drinks available from Comida Viva all while watching the sun set on the ocean. It might rain a bit or maybe not, but either way, it will be a beautiful afternoon – promise.

About the project:

What do mushrooms and women have in common? They both play a significant role in the creation of life on Earth: populating, nourishing, cultivating, and communicating. Similar to the mycelium network, women serve as facilitators of communication and builders of connections. They pass down valuable knowledge through generations and share supportive information that uplifts one another. The Fungi Nipple ceramic installation is a collaborative effort between myself and a group of women who create these pieces together to form a swarm of Fungi Nipples. The number of pieces reflects the vital role that women play in our world as creators of life and growth. A woman embodies Mother Nature herself, with a sacred connection to the earth and clay. By honoring and respecting the womb, we honor and respect the feminine – embracing the deep, mysterious realms of inner wisdom, feminine power, intuition, and living in harmony with the cycles of birth, growth, decay, death. and rebirth. This installation aims to recognize women as the creators of life and their profound connection to Mother Nature. What better way to establish this connection than through a simple acknowledgment? Acknowledgment can serve as a potent tool for building trust, shifting attitudes, and fostering collaboration. This installation is designed to spark conversations about the power and practice of acknowledgment, aligning ourselves with the essence of Mother Nature.

wander/wonder dance event

If you happen to be spending your summer vacation on Whidbey Island or live in the area, be sure to check out this event at the Price Sculpture Forest! I love the combination of the visual and performing arts mingling together in the forest!

My piece on display in the forest, Lichen Series: Spore Patterns is by the biological structures of mushroom gills and the patterns the spores leave behind. The over 300 ceramic forms are based on a type of shelf fungus that has a leathery surface and wedge shaped form that anchors itself to the side of decaying trees. This piece is a 12 foot diameter circle about 18″ high off the ground. Hope you get to see it in person!
