Eulogy in Beads
by Maria Eife
This piece was made over 10 years ago as an homage and meditation on the life of my grandfather, who had passed away about nearly 10 years before I made it. I used elementary alphabet beads to copy the eulogy that his sister had written. It's his life story, according to his sister, strung in 72 feet of beads by his grand daughter. There is no clasp, just a beginning and end.
