Oddity Art

About 2 + years ago I took a class from M. Demeng.  His art is fun, weird, and he does assemblages.  I love 3D art so loved his class.  I have made a few efforts at art, using many tricks I learned in his class!
One of the prompts in the WPS truth group was to explore what you fear now.  I decided I fear getting so old that I have to have  someone elses hands to help me do everyday things.  I decided to make a "shrine" to my fears.  This is what I made:

A wooden box painted and mirrors added.  A question mark (that is what growing old is, a question)for a body with a doll head and arms added.

The mirrors give the box some interactive action.  And the danglies move with small amount of air movement too.

And the hand at the bottom holds this coin... rather how many feel about old people, lol

I still need to do some things to the outside of the box... 

Then, this last week end we took a trip to Denver where I got to go to this Museum

The MOA-Where there is a Nick Bantock AND their permanent exhibit called Cabinets of Curiosities

The above picture is the banners with some of Nick's art in foyer

And Nick's art was very interesting

And boxes and cabinets of curiosities were fabulous

And Nick's assemblages were so fun

So, I found a few treasures while thrifting there to give another go at assemblage.  Yeah!
