Sycamore and Redwood bark collected from a very special place . . .
These jigsaw puzzle shaped pieces of bark help to protect from environmental threats such as insects and a low-intensity, surface fire. In January of 2025, the wildfires in Southern California and the devastating aftermath were on my mind. While working on the piece, I added ash to represent the loss.
