Sitka artist designs slinky dress from 20,000 salmon bones
The idea for a glam salmon-bone dress swam around in Cynthia Gibson’s head for a while before she got cracking on her vision.
“Three years ago I collected buckets and buckets of small vertebrae. Bones in general, I find beautiful. They have a beautiful line and form,” said the Sitka artist. “I always wondered why no one was doing much with salmon vertebrae because they’re everywhere and they’re easy to bead. They already have a hole in the center of them from the spinal cord.”
