About the Item

Janet Nelson has created a wholly original method of making artifacts using contemporary materials – painted mixed polymers and paper laminated with wood glue which are then distressed to give the weathered look of time. From the artist - "Ceremonial artifacts from diverse cultures have always intrigued me. Ceremonial clothing, which is so much more than just body covering, has especially captivated my interest. The reverence that the maker had for the wearer can be seen by the labor put into their work, and the design usually revealed much of a person’s identity, their place in society, and their desires for protection and power."
