2024 05 Your Shadow Is A Land Of Birds The Sun Scatters With A Wave

It is time for another ironing board adventure. The first step after deciding what the substrate would be is to audition some found objects for the adornments. 


For me, its always about the nails




Remember the auditions? Yeah, well...I went with completely different things.



This former house decoration with a clock in it got painted, collaged and assemblaged. It ultimate destination is on the front of the shelf decoration.



After a lot of mixed media techniques, the board was finished.









Thus we have Your Shadow Is A Land Of Birds The Sun Scatters With A Wave. The title for this project comes from the poem The Arms Of Summer by Octavio Paz. It is 62"H X 15"W X 8"D. It consists of an Ironing Board, Nails (48), Wood Shelf, Wood Clock Frame, Watch Face, Light Bulbs (2), Heart Jewel, Blue Beads (9), Fish Beads (5), Paper and Paint.
