OBLATUM 06
Independent, Woodcarving
This small vessel is carved from fallen manitoba maple, harvested from the Seine River in Winnipeg during the winter months of 2023. Rotting and bug-bound, much of this tree remained where she lay.
Red-stain (Fusarium reticulatum)1 is a fungus that enables a red discoloration response to external stimuli. Its darker spots are bore holes--cleared and filled to highlight littler craft.
