Age and Time; Stamp pad
16 February 2010
Lockets; sentimental keepsakes. Worn close, they hold memories. Seasons change, we age and time passes. Stories are created and retold, places are visited and objects collected that evoke nostalgia. Senses trigger recollection, traditions pass between generations like heirlooms.
I come from two
families, market gardeners
and orchardists.
It is in my nature to make things grow.
One in a series of six lockets. A collaboration between jewellery artist Chris Granshaw and artist Mary Whalley.
