Plate It…with Copper

When I return to my studio I will use my electroformer to create a “shell” of copper around the food. I do this with electricity and science! This will capture the moment shared over the meal for all time and make it wearable by turning it into jewelry. I take it off the table and put it on the body in an effort to understand how the wearable memory of the food aids in building/creating sentiments of nostalgia.
