Black Lace Pelvis Mask: I held the original caribou pelvis up to my face and was surprised at how well it fit my head as a mask. It occurred to me that this was where we all come from, a pelvis, which inspired the additional components. The Secret: Inspired by listening to friends discuss how to hide tattoos and piercings for formal job interviews. Three Women: collage created by using Xerox lithography process on wet clay. This is not a decal process; it's printmaking on clay. Design inspired by an ongoing interest in the human/technology interface. Functions as a shallow dish.
