This scroll was part of a site-specific exhibition at Le Chafaud Musée, in Percé, Québec, which looked at the counting system of 19th century fisherman and considered that which cannot be counted. The scroll contains watermarked imagery of dried bones and a hand-sewn text excerpted from T.S. Elliot's "The Wasteland.' It is housed in a graphite/flax paper box with imagery of Nut - the Egyptian goddess of the sky.
