Strange Finds Wood, black foam board, string, fabric, paper. 16"x14"x8" The concept for this sculpture was influenced by Cabinets of Curiosity and specifically the reading called "The Dragon". Ulisse Aldrovandi collected and studies strange creatures, and some were described as dragons. Aldrovandi would study and preserve these species and many others which eneded up in a museum called Museum of Pallazzo Poggi. The artifacts I chose to create in my cabinet of curiosity are a lizard fossil and mumified dragon. These two objects and the cabinet itself are all intentionally created to look like archeological and weathered representing the old age that these objects would be found as.

Protected Love Wire, red paper, blue paper. 2"x1.5"x1.5" The scuplture reflects the memory of my mother reading me my favorite book growing up. In this book there is a mother and daughter racoon. The mother racoon would alwayskiss the daughters hand before school to show that she carries her mothers love with her everywhere. My mother would do the same for me before I would go to school. This small gesture of love is represented through this scuplure by the red, which represents my mothers love, and the wire which is protecting this love, and like her love I will be able to carry it anywhere with me knowing it is safe within my palm.
