The above piece i call- Good Night Moon. the forms and composition are inspired by a favorite bed time story from my childhood. the materials are- found object (saftey pin) brass, cast bronze, ceramic bead, and the stone is florite
this piece was a quick put together, just a day lily sead pod and stem that i cast in bronze and fabricated a pin form to.
this piece i completed about 6 or so months ago, it's inspired by the idea of the reliquary- this piece preserves my innocence- and it has a scent- that reminds me of growing up. the form is inspired by rhododendron flowers from summer to fall. The work is fabricated brass, brass meshing, thread, fabric, blended essential oils, nickel and a set garnet. The stand it sits in, when off the body, is cast iron. details
