Bone to Pick
Brattleboro, VT
Handmade by Ferne Johansson
Scrimshaw objects and jewelry, block prints, hand-printed fabric/clothes.
“My work is rooted in a love of drawing—a love of linework and painstaking processes. The bones and jewelry I make are created in the scrimshaw tradition, which involves engraving and inking a polished piece of bone. Engaging with found remains and old craft traditions in this way—and working to bring new life and meaning to them—is at the center of my practice. ”
— Ferne Johansson
