REFLECTION PROJECTION
Brooches, Reflection | forged 925 silver, acrylic paint, 10 x 5.5 x 3 cm, 8 x 7 x 2 cm, 1996
When reflected, a colour takes on a subtle, mellow profundity.
The hidden interior surfaces of these wearable – vessels – are coated with acrylic paint. Only when light falls inside does the colour reveal itself, always on the verge of disappearing. “It does not always have to shine”.
Some brooches have perforated sides, capturing light projections and darting animatedly with the movements of the body.
