The Four Directions, 1996
Sculpture , variable dimensions
wood, metal, bone button

The Four Directions are four small sculptures each representing a cardinal point: North, South, East, West. In the exhibition A Matter of Life and Death and Singing, they are positioned slightly higher than the other artworks, indicating the direction to which they refer, as a point of reference that goes beyond the exhibition space.
