rich: you are spot on! i've always really admired the intuitive, narrative and graphic qualities of the work of aboriginal australians. i also recently visited this exhibit at the textile museum of canada. i combined those inspirations with some other pattern ideas i've been working on in my sketchbook.
rich: the idea was to refer to the ribcage in an abstracted way.
