"coffre-fort et sû"

This is the second of five necklaces created for my BFA Thesis Exhibition. It is made up of vintage clothespins that once belonged to my grandmother, old sheets with photo's of her transferred onto them, white cotton thread and white ribbon. This necklace represents memories I have of my grandmother hanging her sheets on the clothesline to dry. This necklace serves as a comforting reminder of the safety, love and warmth I felt when I was with her.
