Synthesis Figures

Lapis Head is from a collection of figures influenced from African and Asian artifacts. I call this collection Synthesis Figures. Cultural synthesis

is the intertwining of cultures, ideas, and techniques to develop a whole

new way of doing things. These figures are completely hand crafted and

and composed of Lapis, a replica of an antique Asian coin, woven wild grass, wood and the Yoruba brass bead handcast from OldNigeria Africa.
