Rebekah Kosonen Bide
Fine artist focused in sculpture and time based media.
Current works available for personal use incorporate sculpture and wearable pieces handcrafted using a combination of experimental and archaic techniques. This includes traditional metal-smithing, CAD engineering, life-casting, electro-forming and lost-wax casting. The works are made to order and disseminated / enacted over collective and individual time, space and personhood. This series, originally begun in 2019, was originally named 'Objects of Use' to differentiate from pieces made solely for exhibition. The pieces have now morphed into both sculpture exhibition works and wearable pieces.
