Archival Note Cards | Currach & Stone Series | Boxed Set #8 by James Edward Scherbarth: Box #8 of 9
About this piece
Two dozen small gray stones march across a white mat, one shell drifting off the formation.
This archival boxed set of note cards from the Currach and Stone series, box 8 of 9 is by James Edward Scherbarth. A currach is a traditional Irish boat built of a light wooden frame covered with hide or, later, tarred canvas, used along the Atlantic coast. A black shadow-box frame holds a white mat printed with rows of small gray pebble shapes. A stylized boat and fragment of stone overlap a card at the base, labelled Curragh and Stone in orange and pale metallic lettering. It is 5 inches long and 7 high.
Geometry for people who collect pebbles and then refuse to explain.
