"Together Forever", Think of them as simese twins, siblings, or lovers, forever together in the afterlife. This is basically a box (or small cabinet, or maybe even a small shrine), with articulated arms & legs. The ribs are the doors to the box/cabinet/cavity & are held closed with strong magnets. The heads arms & legs are carved wood, covered with tissue paper & painted, (the ribs also have some carving as well. This is a wall piece but could be displayed laying on it's/their back but not recommended where there are small children or animals as the arms or legs could be broken if handled roughly. Comes with skirt & pants shown. The inside of the box is lined with black suede board. Measures 10" wide x 18-1/2" tall & 4-1/2 " deep & come with mounting hardware.
Although I may repeat a theme I find particularly interesting, each piece is individually crafted. They're not meant to be examples of perfection but have a quality of simplicity or primitiveness about them. The use of found objects and hand-constructed elements adds to this concept. This is important because I find it lends a sense of whimsy and/or eccentricity, which is the spirit in which I approach each piece. These containers are meant to be used, albeit handled with care. I would like to think that many years from now they'll still be around, maybe a little battered and dirty but treasured as an odd remnant from the past.
