Charmed (Bestiary) sculpture: Monochrome Madness

The Charmed (Bestiary) sculpture is part of an exhibition featuring works by Joe Feddersen (Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation). The Joe Feddersen: Earth, Water, Sky exhibit at the High Desert Museum in Bend, Oregon, features nearly 100 multimedia pieces of his art. It runs through January 18, 2025.

This fused glass and filament piece is part petroglyph wall, part wind chime, and part charm bracelet. The glass charms shift with the slightest breeze, reflecting the constant changes in nature.

The delicate clear glass pieces of Charmed (Bestiary) are beautiful on their own, but the shadows they cast take this piece to another level. Can you find the person walking, birds flying, coyotes, and bicycle charms?
