Strange Fruit

Using the Cohesive fragment collage drawings as inspiration, we created a 3D Object, once again using materials found in office supply shops.

The object is a fruit. Real or imaginary. They are worn as brooches.

This example hangs off the wearer, through a button hole, off the collar of a shirt.

The shadows cast by this piece are an integral part of the brooch, bringing an ephemeral quality to it. Also as the shadows move in conjunction with the changes in light source, they impart a sense of the time elapsed during the ripening period of the strange fruit.
