LOT 39
‘To mark an occasion, to match an outfit, to remember/honour those that have past, to signify wealth, patriotism or unity, to protect and/or embolden, to quietly or loudly express one’s self…’
Caught in the space between old and new LOT 39 melds transient fast fashion multiples with emotionally weighted heirloom treasures in an exploration of jewellery and the reasons WHY?

 Series Title: 'Filling the Void' Pendants, 2015
Copper, brass, polyurethane, automotive paint, cord
Referencing what has gone before and reinterpreting this through material choice and abstraction of familiar forms, Filling the Void embraces the ‘space between’ - the past and the present, the visible and the invisible, the real and the imagined with a sideways glance to the disposable excesses of modern day living.
‘...We become aware of the void as we fill it.’ Antonio Porchia
