Finding Home by the Salish Sea
This project is currently in progress…
*the ceramic sculpture in the video is made from glacial clay I gathered this summer from the Kitimat-Kitsumkalum trough, pit fired by the Salish Sea and painted with red ochre.
I am working on a new series of paintings using bone dry pond clay, charcoal, rust, mushroom ink, and chalk made from bisque fired pond clay. All the materials are gathered from my hamlet where I call home.
Copper scraps given to me by my neighbour were soaked in a vinegar and salt solution for one month and the results are this beautiful teal blue.
Copper, cortinarius, lemon juice, red cabbage inks on watercolour paper.
