Rawhide Report post Posted June 3, 2009 ...just found this photo well hidden amongst many old files. And yes, this really did fall off the back of a truck, in 2003, after making it from San Francisco to Japan and finally to Australia where it was lost... I have not seen it since. I made this over a constructed pyramid made from heavy card...it is covered with goatskin in many parts. There are also many plugs beneath (flowers, small squares etc). The base also is heavy card covered with cowhide, with goatskin edges and corners. The 'bird of paradise' flower is made from very fine kangaroo with the stem being light timber dowel. It is all colored with spirit dyes, part brush and part airbrush. From memory this piece stood (and probably still stands...somewhere) about 36" high.
