These two stoneware sculptures (front and back views shown here) in SKIN: Nature's Wrapping Paper, at the Fulton Street Gallery, Troy NY, in May-June 2008.
Artist Statement: "We are among the newest humans on the timeline of generations that dates back to ancient times. Peer under our fresh wrappings to discover that today's human packages still contain the genetic remnants - fossilized imprints - of our oldest ancestors." Note that the imprinted "fossil" texture on the brown belly is created with sea shells.

What a beautiful artist's statement, Linda -- I imagine the show was a visual delight!
