Description
Summary:This three-dimensional artwork is mounted on a rectangular white surface (likely board). The board is outlined with a row of coniferous cones attached perpendicularly to the board. Inside this row, a row of dried flowers in shades of orange, burgundy and beige. In the centre of the work is a fan constructed of black feathers (some with white tips), overlain by a smaller fan of white feathers to create a high contrast image. The fan is completed with a larger dried flower at the centre base, surrounded by short white feathers. Immediately below the centre of the fan and in the two upper corners of the work there are small arrangements of pink and white dried flowers, with smaller dried flowers and dried vegetation around them. This artwork hangs in the Sachs Harbour Community Corporation Building.
