Gift from the Sea
Dale Copeland, 2020
assemblage of found objects
80 cm tall
A dried puffer fish is such a delight to find.
And those things hanging at the bottom?
I was astonished to find that they're sea urchin spikes!
Our kina (sea urchins) are much smaller, with thin spikes only about an inch long.
These ones make a lovely noise when they hit together in the wind.
Dale's studio can be found at Puniho,
Surf Highway, Coastal Taranaki, New Zealand
More of her artwork, and the books she makes, can be found on her site at dalecopeland.co.nz.
