Aluminum Relief, Upper Valley, White River Jct. area. Some abrasion and oxidization evident. Roughly symmetrical. Collected ca. 1999. 13 – 35 cm.

The broad analogies presented by these pieces to the human anatomy are what initially draw us to them.

What possible motive there might be for an object to mimic sections of the human anatomy is a subject for future research.
