I wanted to try my hand at making a Dead Fly
out of some of the grapevines we have hanging off the trees. I've always
wanted to try making a basket but really don't need another basket. This took
some work! My dog, who gets involved in pretty much anything we do, helped me
pull the vines off of the trees. The easiest way to attached them to each other
was to use Zip Ties. I think the mini lights add a nice touch just
in case someone might want to hang it on their porch.
The Dead Fly Project is a series of one hundred paintings, drawings, sculptures, whatever - depicting a dead fly - same fly - over and over again - but different each time by Beverley Conrad. She experiments with different mediums and executes them according to her whim at the time. Sometimes they're pretty, sometimes scary, sometimes funny, sometimes political, and sometimes a fly is just a fly.
