A Serpent Trail

Mixed Media Altar Assemblage

25″h x 15″w x 9″d

Self-knowledge, wisdom & experience that we acquire during the course of our existence are ours alone, yet if we can somehow leave just a bit of it behind, therein lies the legacy of our being.

This altarpiece is constructed with wood and paper and adorned with characters from the temple of my mind…the Serpent Goddess reclines in repose between skulls and bones; a reminder that we all will die.

It is what we leave behind that is important.

"the tread i leave from womb to grave
of knowledge i have gained...
a serpent trail of which stain and shadow
will remain."

This piece as well as THE SEA WITCH and SACRED GROTTO were chosen by Copro Gallery to exhibit at the 2023 LA Art Show at the Los Angeles Convention Center Feb 16-19, 2023
