Terrarium (Hieracium maculatum) Miranda Bellamy & Amanda FauteuxSackville, NB Dimension 28" x 11" x 9" Médium Sackville red sandstone “Terrarium (Hieracium maculatum),” Sackville red sandstone, 2022. “Terrarium (Hieracium maculatum)” is one in a series of sandstone sculptures made from the remains of demolished Mount Allison University buildings in Sackville, New Brunswick. These sculptures were carved and extruded from sandstone according to drawings derived from the electrochemical signals of lupin, raspberry, spotted hawkweed, February daphne, and fern fiddleheads found growing in Sackville’s defunct Pickard Quarry. Once the source of Mount Allison’s famous sandstone, and the origin of these stones, the quarry is now a liminal space of both ecological turmoil and “natural beauty.” Terrarium (Hieracium maculatum) Miranda Bellamy & Amanda FauteuxSackville, NB À propos de l'artiste À propos de l'artiste Miranda Bellamy & Amanda FauteuxSackville, NB Suivez sur les sociaux Miranda Bellamy and Amanda Fauteux are partners and artistic collaborators who work with research driven processes and interdisciplinary outcomes.
