"Metalman"
87-045-010 Porcelain bisque bead (discontinued)
64-516 Sterling silver sheet, 18 gauge
Art Clay Silver overlay paste
This award-winning piece, titled "Lost Memories," from the 2003 Japanese Art Clay Silver theme exhibition "Fond Memories," is constructed from sterling silver sheet and findings with copper, porcelain, Art Clay Silver, dichroic glass and pearls. A large porcelain bead was cut to form the dome, which was painted and fired with ACS overlay paste. It was then hand-carved and colored with porcelain paints and prismacolor pencils. A quote from the movie Bladerunner runs across and through the piece: "All those moments will be lost in time like tears in the rain"
Behind the dome, seen through the center opening, is a sheet of transparent dichroic glass that reflects and refracts colored light, depending on what's behind the pin. The dome's silver lining enhances the effect.
