A Healthy Body, view 2
Tokens: 2012; Urn/Sculpture: 2014
Saggar smoke fired wheel thrown and altered stoneware, fused glass with LED lighting
Urn: approx 10" h x 8" w, voto: approx 1-1/2" x 1" (irregular)
This one sort of made itself. Wheel thrown and altered with the addition of body parts all over it. Kind of creepy what lurks inside my brain at times.

The tokens contained in this vessel relate to prayers and concerns I had in 2012 regarding issues regarding to health and health care. Some are highly personal regarding people I love who were very sick and have since died or family members who would be embarrassed, so I won't share those with you. Some prayers were targeted to some specific health issues I had at the time I'd rather not share so I won't. But the ones I will share in the jar are:

A Healthy Body Prayer:
In thanksgiving for Michelle Obama for battling childhood obesity in the United States

In thanksgiving for Barak Obama who brought health care reform to the American people

To everyone for access to good affordable health care

For everyone living in food deserts

For people living in polluted places

For everyone in oncology waiting rooms

Please let me remain cancer free
