The Discovery Ports - Under Soil & Skin #1-4

Under Soil & Skin, #1-4

Jen Valender

This series of sculptures repurpose forgotten and discarded children’s string instruments. The precarity and neglect of these objects echoes our own current ecology story.  These works are part of the exhibition Broken Chord.
