beep beep beeeeeep




I really have to start putting current work on... But why bother? These hearts are a 3rd year enamelling project for Limoge. Our brief was kintetic, my earring sway very lightly from side to side but the actual "movement" is in the enamel, an E.E.G monitor. The front side has a heart beat and the back has a flat-line. There is no soldering on this piece and the two halves have a scratched texture and are sown together with fine silver wire (.3 mm in diameter). They each have two little garnet beads to cap them. As these are dying hearts I thought they would be apropriate to my mood at the moment.
