This piece is based around characters I’ve been working with Cal artisans tasked with preserving culture. Through these characters, I explore the role the artisan plays in society. I led the Guild of Makers, who are a group of artists, in exploring these themes. These figures are presented with various artefacts, which function as symbolic totems.
