The God-Daughter of Joseph Cornell

____________________________________________________________________________________

Joseph Cornell is here.

He is the artist
whose name is
synonymous
with the  term
"shadow box."











His "God-daughter"
is not there  ⬇
But a sample of her art
is what you see here.


Her name is
Ona Zimmerman.


We love her shadowbox
but, at this time, we
cannot provide
an appropriate
hyperlink.



"We" is Mr. & Mrs. CarPeo.

It was the latter who described
Ms. Zimmerman as

"A mini-ist not a minimalist."




The title of her shadowbox
is here  ⬇

    Gather enough chairs for stairs
    to find plans for the planet neighbors.

    Mr. CarPeo must find the staircase.

      A staircase to the heavens?

      Where is the staircase? How long to get there?

      Notice that the wait of the world is buckling the knees
      of the bottom weight-bearing member.

    Is the world buckling at its knees?

    If it is going to drink lunar sweat (see adjacent page),
    I think the answer is YES.
