"In the Future We'll Build Our Shopping Carts from Sticks and Twigs So We Can Stock Up on the Bones of Our Children" (scavenged sticks and twigs, India ink, paint, wire and cardboard), by John Christian Anderson, in his show "My Inheritance,'' through July 23 at Boston Sculptors Gallery.

Mr. Anderson uses both scavenged material and handcrafted parts to create sculptures  looking like  facsimiles and evoking both ominousness and humor.

The title, "My Inheritance,'' refers to a future in which   art will be created with ever-dwindling resources.
