Family-Tree Houses
Hand-built Ceramic Funeral Urn
15" H.
ics

This piece depicts seven houses from within my family tree on my maternal side of the family. It traces my "roots" back as far as my Great Grand parents. The vines represent my family members starting with my Maternal Great Grand parents, through my second marriage and my own two children. There are vines for each marriage and birth with the family (see diagram), as well as bridges, secret steps and other symbols that represent major events in my life.
