M
adi Fulkerson
lulls us into a
fascinated trance
as she works
with the meticulous skill of an artist. Her
tools are scoops of dirt, pebbles and rocks,
tiny ferns and a variety of tiny creatures with
amazingly detailed features. All those things,
including fairies, mushrooms, mermaids, even
dinosaurs, remain steadfastly still wherever
she puts them.
Unless, that is, she decides to move them.
"Sometimes, I end up not liking where my
plants are," she said. "I'll pull everything out
and start again. But I try to have a story in
mind before I start."
