Grey Coiled Rope Necklace, 2010, Cotton Rope and Yarn
« I have developed my own craft technique coiling and stitching cotton rope, which I write patterns for as you would for knitting or crochet. Forms develop out of a combination of intuitive material experimentation and the shared visual language of eclectic sources. The movement, knotting and twisting of the coils reveals the striking stitching in contrasting colours, while their form as large-scale jewellery pieces, celebrates the softness and tactility of the material and creates a sense of presence. » (Eleanor BOLTON)
