Two things have immediately struck me about the space I am now working in at Fresno State; 1) The wonderful architectural details and light diffusing slats installed to mimic local native american weaving patterns, 2) the presence of this amazing “Burden Bag” in the case below. Like my encounter with the dilly bag in Cairns a few weeks ago the form of this one is so similar to images I have been seeing and making that it is almost certainly bound to influence the final results of this work. But since it is only the first day I can never be too sure.
