this is the finished piece, relic 1 dormant memory
I am making large snow globes to go in front of the light wall . they will be in 2 sizes 6″ and 12″ the 12″ take 3 gallons of water solution. I have to stabilize the figure so it wont interact with the water and so you can shake it and it wont fall off the stand. I found both of these figures int he woods at different times at first it was a great mystery, and as I cleaned them up I realized what they are
where we lived, each town with in the unit had a name, based on who lived there or what view they had ,I lived in section 8 named for the low income housing in inner cities, we had no windows, no privacy,next to the gambling tables, and the lights never went off, also during a shake down we were the first bunk hit.

I tried to make each base, one at a time but, I made one well and the net two failed -so I decided to make a mold for the base that was perfect as I was going to make 6 all together.
