THE ANCESTORS was a series of collaborative leather sculptures by Lauren Raine and Duncan Eagleson. They celebrate those who have gone before, our unknown forebears, and the elemental powers that informed their lives. Buried in the earth, the faces of prehistory break through the cracked soil and the leafy forest floor to re-emerge at last, their stories, long buried, urging remembrance.

DUNCAN EAGLESON is a narrative artist, mask artist, and writer residing in Rhode Island. For information about Duncan's art and masks, visit his website: www.eaglesondesign.com.
