Dimensions variable

Megg Minos makes objects to express joy. She has a background in gold & silversmithing, floristry and creative writing and believes all of these things are related.
Silurian Falls is a small soft sculpture, vaguely crystalline/geological in form, stacked.
I started making these pieces during Donald Trump’s first electoral campaign and eventual election. I felt that the radio was bringing something into my studio that I could only listen to helplessly and with horror. I wasn’t able to concentrate on making jewellery. I started to sew these gold objects; they were easy, absurd and calming. I hope that in this current crisis, these objects can provide similar comfort.
