Digital C-Print, 8x10"


Up for bid is an original photograph of a haunted pair of gloves.

This photograph features a pair of haunted leopard print gloves*. After purchasing the gloves from a second hand store my friend was plagued by strange events. I was summoned out of bed repeatedly following whispered phone calls asking me to search her home. A number of occurrences follow:

Frequently, in bed and alone, she saw shadows pass under her door as though someone were walking through the hallway, past her room.

Another instance she awoke in the night to the crinkling of a plastic bag. Thinking her cat was playing with the bag she called to it. The noise stopped. As she shifted her body she felt the cat, already sleeping at her side!

The most startling event occurred on a night as she prepared to leave home. On said evening, she had the gloves in hand, set them on her kitchen counter, and ran upstairs to fetch her purse. Moments later, returning to the kitchen every cabinet and drawer stoop gaping open.

If one pair of gloves is a nexus for an unknown ghost between this world and another perchance ten photographs, in the gloves' likeness, will become it's network. The first lucky bidder is sure to find out if the manifestations follow.
*This is only background information about the gloves pictured. The actual gloves are not included in this auction. If you are the winning bidder you will receive a photograph in the mail shipped in a flat envelope.

Trinitite First Atomic Bomb Atomite Rare 1945

Trinitite First Atomic Bomb Atomite Rare 1945
Trinitite First Atomic Bomb Atomite Rare 1945, 2008
Ink on paper, 7.5x6"

Up for bid is an original drawing of a genuine piece of trinitite. The drawing is by artist, Erik Dalzen, and is titled "Trinitite First Atomic Bomb Atomite Rare 1945". Pale green drawing ink on BFK white 100% archival cotton rag paper. The drawing measures 7.5x6 inches. Unique. Signed and dated on the back.

July 16, 1945 birthed the Atomic Age with the detonation of the first atomic bomb at the Trinity Site, near Alamogordo, New Mexico. The explosion, equivalent to around 20 kilotons of TNT, left a lake of green glass, 800 yards in diameter, on the desert floor. This glass, dubbed Trinitite, is typically light olive green in color and is remains measurably radioactive today. The majority of the trinitite was excavated and buried. Limited samples were circulated among mineral collectors. However, today it is a federal offense to remove remaining fragments from the Trinity site, which is open to the public two days a year. Contrary to estimations of some of the scientists involved, the blast did not result in the "ignition of the atmosphere and incineration of the entire planet" but produced this beautiful mineral instead. The specimen* from which this drawing was made was formed near the center of the blast. The bottom is rough reflecting the sandy desert surface. The top is lumpy, convoluted, with gas pockets, sand inclusions, and other irregular surfaces. Weighs 12.13 grams. Measures 1 7/8x1x5/8".
*This is only background information about the trinitite. The actual specimen is not included in this auction. If you are the winning bidder you will receive a drawing in the mail shipped in a flat envelope.
