Piece: "Four Bound Rivers” (Rock Wrap) Symbolizes: Insight, Self Awareness, & Wisdom Size: 10.5 cm (height), 18 cm (width), & 7.5 cm (depth)
A kelp fiber rock wrap designed and created by J.D. Lenzen. Both kelp fibers and stone collected along the Northern California Coast. The kelp utilized for the piece was prepared over the course of weeks, through a process of wetting, stretching, and drying, until the associated fibers achieved the thickness, pliability, and color desired. Following completion of the rock wrap, the piece was tightened as it dried. The fibers associated with the final piece are locked tight around the stone and have the appearance and consistency of medium and dark aged wood.
