Contemporary Acrylic Necklace by Sue Gregor
Acrylic, Silver and silk
18" inch long Chain
47 mm x 47mm disc
This necklace is individually made using actual May / Hawthorne leaves that were gathered from the park near my house.. On the reverse is a vintage lace design. It has hand made fastenings and is on an 18" silver snake chain. It is made using my own method of dying and embossing plastic which I call fossilized Plastic due to the fine detail which it is possible to capture on the embossed surface so they are similar to fossils.
For the subject I choose quite ordinary plants and weeds, as well as textiles . I hope that the wearer will not only enjoy them as jewellery but also review their appreciation of the natural world. I set out to create a marriage between the industrial and the organic. I want to create a feeling of celebration between material and subject.
