Elise Winters, Garden Esprit Brooch, 2010
5.5″h x 5.5″ w x 3″d
polymer, acrylic, maple, brass
This past weekend at SOFA:NY, my new Esprit Brooches were exhibited for the first time on maple stands. Brooch forms have always been my favorite. I approach them as small scale sculpture. After making these larger ruffle brooches I felt they should be on display when not in use. I love that the stand allows the brooch to float in space.
Also on view at Snyderman-Works Gallery were several of these new hole punch brooches by Ford/Forlano.
Read what they have to say about technique here and about the concept here.
