Brass, Dried Oranges
80 x 35 mm
Dedicated to the relationship I have with my chosen (non-biological) grandfather - an incredibly caring man who I could not have more love and respect for. He (and his family) helped raised me and my brother in a loving, caring and supportive household. Due to the open link form, the oranges let off a citrus scent which is meant to trigger my memories to eating the oranges he would go out of his way to obtain for me.
