"Seeing Red"●
This glass enclosed memory box was so much fun to make. I started by covering it on the inside and outside in tissue papers. The found objects contained within the box sort of 'selected' themselves. The placement of each item seemed instinctive and effortless, each piece found it’s place within the space that contains it and there it stayed, because it looked good.
At the end of the day, once the piece was finished, as I was closing up my studio to go home, I remember briefly thinking about what to name the piece. The next day, the minute I opened the door to my studio, and without having given it another thought, I saw the piece and found that even the title was self administered . . .
