Crystal Monocle

August Bank Holiday, England 1988

Michael paints his first bean painting

*Susan Hill

the brief - a love token, something functional... ...with a 'glow in the dark', magic stone sort of a feel. An egg whisk into the future. Tiger's eye, carnelian, bloodstone, smoky quartz.....a salad of stones? A trembling garden. And... ...*the seven (7) vital processes: sensation, locomotion, digestion, assimilation, respiration, excretion, reproduction.

the materials - anodised aluminium, fake pearls and chandelier crystal, gold plate.
