Bone House: Erblos - Small

Bone House Erblos was inspired by Bird-Eye-Sockets, The Pelvis, and Bone Cross-sections. Its final design is full of flourishes and suggests "growth" and "blossoming". The large gesture is a curve and has a spinal quality, with forms attached to it like a flower with a stem and buds.

So for me, this Bone House deals with Growth, Potential, Prosperity, Resources, Life, Flexibility, Dependancy, Support, Nurturing, a Symbiotic Relationship, Propogation, Milestones, and Stages of Life Cycle. Granted, that is a lot of attributes to bundle together, so you might want to pair it down a bit, or come up with your own logic for this Bone House.

Considering the shapes, they are certainly not sharp and dangerous looking. They are round and round and more round. Though as a whole, they create an arc, which also is not-rigid. Not Angular.

This shape reminds me to sway. To bend with circumstances of life. I dont have to be so rigid. "Life will find a way". So when an obstacle gets in the way of my growth, I can find away around the obstacle - instead of trying to smash through it.

Of the circular shapes, there are plenty. Plentiful. This suggests that remember my skills. That I likely have what it takes to get the job done. I just need to figure out the way. If House Erblos is Cast on the far side of the Altra Cloth, then one way to interpret that, is that it is a future event. This could mean that I need to prepare some resources for a future event. It could also mean that I still have some growing pains ahead of me.

A good color for this object, might be green, as green is often associated with growth. Or perhaps, I print it in White, so that it is bone-like, but then add a green ribbon to it. Or wind a green vine through it, for a special casting. Another option, is to print it in white, but dip the ends in green paint. Dont be afraid to modify your Bone Houses to your needs. Be creative with them.

Of course, the meaning that you attacht to Bone House Erblos, may have nothing to do with Growth. So green might not match your personal meaning. That is fine too.
