Snowmelt & Deep Aquifers

On the banks of the Yellowstone River bald eagles watch as i wade into the rushing silty waters. The rivers of Montana are the lines upon which the stories of time in that place are written. Geologic time tumbles over our toes, freezing water pressing it forward.

This chalcedony stone is the essence of deep winter ice solidified into stone. It is bound into a basket of knotwork and joined by beads of fluorite. From a cord of felted merino this talisman hangs.

These pieces are part of The Movement of Stones Project.
