Striking in shades of black, white, and deep brown, this Canebrake Rattlesnake shed carries the quiet power of its namesake. Native to the Eastern United States, the Canebrake dwells among limestone crevices and pine forests, places of stillness and shadow.
This piece reimagines that natural habitat, with layers of clay embedded with foraged pine needles and glimmering mica flakes. The surface catches light like scales in motion, alive with subtle shimmer and texture. Seen in person, the work reveals its depth and complexity, an homage to the delicate balance between strength and beauty found in nature.
24” x 30” Canebrake Rattlesnake shed, clay plaster, pine needles, black mica, natural soil on clay board. Handmade walnut frame.
