Bric a Brac


Cast glass
18 H x 9 W x 29 D cm


Bric a Brac is a playful comment on humanities compulsion to collect and create objects.

Encased within the glass are utilitarian objects found in a junkyard. They no longer serve a function they are valued for their beauty only.

The question I keep asking myself is have I created more bric a brac? Or is it an object of enduring beauty? I guess that it is in the eye of the beholder.
