Small porcelain sculpture, glazed white, in the form of a piece of bread with a small fish lying on top and a thin piece of white porcelain curling up that resembles a piece of lettuce, the fish is highlighted in light blue glaze in dots on his belly, on his fins and eyes.
A black and white photograph featuring a dark colored heavy duty safety glove. The material of the glove, possibly suede or a similar texture fabric has become worn out and is in an overall depleted state. This right-handed glove has small pieces of the material missing, including a hole at the top of the ring finger. Siting in the palm of the glove is debris, like a small piece of metal or plastic, dirt, small pebbles or rock fragments, a broken piece of glass and a mangled feather. Surrounding the glove are dirt like fragments of the disintegrated fabric and stitching thread that are coming loose but still attached at the wrist of the glove. This kind of thick material glove is often used by workers handling heavy equipment, machinery or construction material.
Large figure of a bear carved of one piece of wood and painted black, resting on all four legs, which are either carved or left as is as broken branches of the tree, the head formed and the facial features and ears are subtly defined.
An abstract painting of a partial solid background of rusty red color with an organic form of minty green color with a grid like painted texture occupies center space of canvas. The bottom left portion extending up towards the top right portion has a burnt brown like color with similar painted grid like texture. Other smaller portions of blue, black, purple and gray can also be seen.
