Pieces of 48
Relating to memories of the street where I grew up and that shaped who I am. 48 was the door number of our house in Canal Street, Newry, Co.Down and the number still resonates with me. The componant parts of the brooch are separate pieces of jewellery and when each is slotted into the right compartment within the brooch they form the number 48. The overall brooch is shaped like a window, a reference to peering into the past. Part of the collective body of work entitled FORM.
