Jim Kolbenschlag is a visual artist working in Socorro, New Mexico, U.S.A. His current work uses crop circle formations in conjunction with American Indian painted pottery designs. These pieces are wall-hung relief sculptures made of wood. The images are cut from one quarter inch thick wood and are affixed to a disk of wood. Standard woodworking power and hand tools are used followed by a great deal of hand sanding. The compositions are an attempt to explore the possible spiritual connections between the crop circle phenomenon and the body of work produced by pre-historic and historic American Indian artists.
