In the installation piece Inventory, images of collected animal remains are mixed with details of an aging body. Hung together they document the tangible aspects of one’s life. Considered further, they represent the process of appraising life’s experiences.
Inventory includes over 1000 photographs printed on transparency film or photo rag paper and then cut to the dimensions of toe tags. Hung with black thread, they are hung from the ceiling or to the wall with entomology pins poked into foam strips. In recent years, tags that have been added have been made from upcycled, handmade paper and infused with encaustic wax.
Dimensions are approximately 30 feet by 6 feet but can vary depending on shape and space.
