VE mask - TImothy 'Bjorn' Jones - 72 DPI

VE

Carved from a piece of blowdown from the hurricane Arthur four years prior, the knot dead centre in this piece challenged me to approach my work in a completely new way.

Having been down for four years before carving, dry rot runs throughout parts of the mask.  I have removed  this, and used a transparent resin epoxy to fill the voids.  This gives a unique look inside the wood while also sealing the piece off from oxygen, removing any possibility of further dry rot.

​

VE is the third and final brother credited with creating the first humans in the Norse creation story.
