Menhir Head I

Clay and glaze
15 x 7 x 7 in.
The menhir series depicts my long personal relationship with trees. These abstracted tree trunks depict my uneasiness with current human relationships to nature by using the texture of mass-produced objects for the bark. As time has passed, I see these trunks becoming torso-like and have added heads to remind us that we are one with the natural world.
