Marked in the Bones

Hello,
   This work was too fragile to take to Skidmore. The bones are made of clay and the images in the slats have different text from many cultures and times. The large bone has the quote "Cast A Light Upon My Secrets. The Answers Are Written In My Bones." I have to create one more skull that will be hanging down next to the feathers. My question; Do you find the bark on the left distracting? I was thinking of having fine, red threads coming down from the large bark on the bottom-like veins instead of roots. What are your thoughts?
