mummified oracle of delphi

For Stage Properties II class at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts

My interpretation of the Oracle of Delphi in the attic of the Big House at Camp Halfblood in The Lightning Thief Series by Rick Riordan.

“On a three-legged stool sat the Oracle—a shriveled female mummy in a tie-dyed dress. Tufts of black hair clung to her skull. Glassy eyes stared out of her leathery face. Just looking at her made my skin crawl.” (The Last Olympian, Chapter 3)

Foam head, papier-mache, sawdust, clay, paint, marbles, doll hair, and fabric. Patterned, stitched, and tie-dyed dress.
