METRONOME
OF
HEART
The heart beats - to lay on your chest & be soothed by the metronome of life. A life shared. A life so loud one can only be lulled by the drum of our most primordial form. Here she rests.

Inlay techniques have been used for centuries to tell stories of familial & human history. The seamless fusing of two materials for ornament is superfluous to the function of the object but within the ornament lies a dedication to the bonding of function and intrigue. The intrigue serves a purpose that is a part of the unconscious matter that connects us to a space or object - an identity. Thus serving a function of greater connection to the world around us. An art form that has been diminished to the invasiveness of minimalism & modern manufacturing practice.
