In indigenous American cultures, beliefs state that the power of the Great Spirit lives through the bear, who represents female energies.
The bear necklace incorporates papier mâché in both laminate and pulp form. The surfaces are treated with mixed media, including traditional gesso techniques, graphite and encaustic wax.
The paper rope is adjustable with a simple sliding knot, from approx. 57cm – 77cm. The pendant measures 15cm x 9cm and the papier mâché ball, approx. 3cm in diameter.
These necklaces are lightweight and easy to wear. They are created individually, making each one distinct and unique.
