Artwork One:

Title: SUN DAGGER

Materials and Techniques: Merino and silk paper, wet felted

Inspiration:The Sun Dagger marks the time of the equinoxes and the 18.6 Lunar Cycle. Created by the Ancestral Puebloans of Chaco Canyon, the spirals were carved on a rock slab in a precise location on Fajada Butte where the sun shines through a fissure formed by the surrounding rock slabs.  This astronomical observation by the Chocoans is truly a work of art as well as a marking of the passage of time.
