Metamorphosis - A change of the form or nature of a thing or person into a completely different one.
I made the 'Banane' rings whilst going through a big period of change in my life and liked the theme of metamorphosis. The rings were made from banana skins which were formed, dried and cast into metal. Two were created using the outside texture and one the inside texture.
Each piece is hallmarked by the Birmingham Assay office.
