On the bench today (amongst a lot of other works in progress..) is this large lodolite quartz I found at Inhogenta this year. It's cut to show off the amazing inclusions but that makes it a very deep stone and a bit of a challenge to make a ring for #onthebench #oneofakind #quartz #inhorgenta #gemshopping #MadeLondon #Sheffield #brutalist #constructavist #rings (at Sheffield)

“In the late '70s, Kasten moved from the darkroom into the studio, where she assembled found industrial materials—wire, sheet metal, Plexiglas and mirrors—into transitory structures that existed only to be photographed. Flush with color, the "Constructs" series (1979–84) bears a striking, and deliberate, resemblance to the complex geometries of Constructivist painting.”

The last image is from El Lissitzky, Proun 19D. 

I’m not sure how her work or constructivism directly relates to my practice but I’ve found that she has inspired me to experiment with photography, materials, and projection over the last year in a way that I had not considered before.
