About this artwork
I find that bones are very potent objects, representing both the past ( when their owners lived) and the future (of all living beings) along with ponderings on the nature of life and the passage of time. Without the philosophical freight, bones are simply beautiful natural forms, which we can appreciate as sculptural objects. I used bones in this piece both for that purpose and also to evoke a larger game, one which we are all playing, and which… requires skill as well as luck. As with most of my work, I have tried to instill a feeling of mystery in the piece.
The box is constructed of wood, with a hinged, black framed glass front that can be opened. Most of the objects inside are vintage. The bones are contemporary.
Diane Keane is a mixed-media artist and painter with roots in Pittsburgh and a background spanning commercial art, papermaking, calligraphy, and medical illustration. She crafts assemblage boxes reminiscent of shrines or curiosity cabinets from found or fabricated objects, balancing realism and surrealism in her paintings to conjure extraordinary realities. Her work weaves personal narratives and social commentary, infusing irony amid themes of motherhood, womanhood, and environmental decline. Above all, her art beckons the viewer into mysterious, atmospheric worlds, sparking emotions that range from pleasure and intrigue to thoughtful discomfort and wonder.
