The only ceramic element here is the image in relief with the figure and raised text. Once I had made that, I realized I could combine it with other materials, just as I do when I make my mixed-media sculptures (which can be seen in a different folder). I had come across a cool junk store in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, that brings in stuff from Japan, and there I found some old boxes designed to hold scrolls. I got some of those, took them apart, and used the beautiful aged wood to create a frame for the guy holding the shovel. I guess it must be me, because on the right side you can see some of my ceramic forms lined up on a deck. The long, narrow panel at the top has a 3-D "collage" of found objects behind plexiglas, just as the guy is protected behind plexiglas.Inscription/Signature/Marks
