Bag of Bones

Description

Bag of Bones is a sculptural meditation on mortality, resilience, and transformation. Crafted from a rotating stack of split bamboo “bones,” the piece evokes a skeletal form—both architectural and organic. The lower segments are varnished, their gloss suggesting the artificial, the preserved. As the eye rises, the bamboo transitions to a raw, untreated state: a quiet movement from the polished to the pure, from artifice to authenticity. This progression mirrors a passage—from death to renewal, from structure to spirit.

At once delicate and grounded, Bag of Bones reveals the quiet power and poetic potential of bamboo as a medium.
