Description: | The simplicity of this piece lies in its construction from a single sheet of silver using a 'cut and fold' technique. The way in which the shapes of metal, forming the feet of this piece have been cut and bent back on themselves clearly demonstrate this. The leaf echoes the negative shape formed in between the four walls. Removable, the leaf is bent back at its stalk to form a clip by which it can be attached to the bowl at any point or displayed aside. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1996 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | Simone Ten Hompel | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/artonline/se... | Go to resource |
