The Dark Forest: Sylvan Lake Fire 1

27" x 20" x 13"

Dyed rattan and bleached Hamburg cane, pine needles, waxed linen, recycled cat food bags and recycled livestock feed bags.

I hiked to the site of a wildfire in Colorado to witness the devastation caused by a lightning strike. Only a few months after the event, life was stirring amongst the blackened pines. Struck by the beauty of the wounded forest, I vowed to document its rebirth annually with the creation of a basket.
