Jewellery for an Ancient Cedar  (2025)
Site-specific work with a 271 year old Cedar in the grounds of Boston Manor Park, London.
Picture
A dynamic sculpture is held within the branches of a much celebrated ancient cedar of Lebanon in the grounds of this incredibly biodiverse urban park.
The artwork’s form is inspired by living organisms; gigantic such as galaxies, microscopic like bacteria as well as the larval inhabitants of this very tree.
This continues an exploration of  the qualities of rope, here in conversation with colourful industrial foam offcuts, pallet strapping and other found and discarded materials.
Dimensions:
5000mm H x 600mm Ø
Materials:
Ship ropes, foam, pallet strapping, material, aluminium wire .
