This piece is quite large and was in large crate in my studio to be delivered to the exhibit the following week when the fire occurred. The fire consumed this piece that was inspired by the cycle of life in nature, all that is created is destroyed and is created again. 9th INTERNATIONAL FIBER BIENNIAL AT SNYDERMAN March 7, 2014 I am happy to be included in the 9th international fiber biennial at Snyderman Gallery ! This is the piece included in the biennial at snyderman. This piece is the last remaining paper piece in my possession after the studio fire. I made this smaller Turtle Returning in 2007 using Abaca and Flax. It is the mother of the larger piece above. Soon more will be made using a combination of fired clay and handmade paper.
