A GIFT OF CONTINUATION

To maintain our botanical province and natural surroundings 
we carefully save our seeds from one plant generation to the 
next to preserve the quality of a species. 

A Gift of Continuation is an offering in hopes of bringing forth another generation and continue the valued tradition of seed saving. 



Detail image of 
A Gift of Continuation

This piece, as with others I have created of similarity, is made from various materials. The chair is made from metal street sweeper bristles arduously constructed twisting wire around the "slats" to hold them in place. It was a bit of a struggle keeping everything aligned while maneuvering the pliers and wire as I secured the "slats". The small 1 inch square box is made from mica and paper with red maple "whirly-gigs" inside it representing seeds gifted for the future.
