Making Call and Response





Liesl and I are participating in an open members exhibition at Arts Worcester titled 'Call and Response'.
On loan to Arts Worcester is a collection of African artifacts from the Fitchburg Art Museum in Fitchburg, MA.  I am creating a candle lamp using a mask in the collection as inspiration. The lamp is based on my modern tea lights I make.  I'm using plywood for the lamp tower and African padauk for the base.
My response piece is the second artifact in the video,a mask,  which can be viewed above or at the Arts Worcester website www.artsworcester.org and click on the 'call and response' link.
