This is the progress of my work at the art production residency at Arquetopia in Oaxaca, Mexico. I have been looking at traditional paper mache sculpting and the elaborate woodcarving alebrije traditions that exist here in Mexico. Making this piece, which is the realisation of a dream I had about 7 years ago, has created the space for other sculpture ideas to emerge. I am looking forward to making more when I get back to Perth and seeing in what ways paintings will work with them.
