I love rings so i decided to mess around with some UK coins and make a ring! I layered coins on top of each other to make a pillar like shape. I like how the colours of the coins jump from their usual order. There is a bit of weight in the ring itself, I suppose its expensive taste*.
You have all probably seen a pool of coins thrown down on a table somewhere- I decided to pick it up and make it vertical.
I used the cardboard from an empty toilet roll and taped it into a circular coin shape.
I like the way you can see what money is - its hollow and empty but without it what would we have?
You can see from my photograph of the basic shape of a 5 euro note on the right that its paper...money is just paper- crumpled, printed, paper.
I had to capture the shadow that my piece made- I love the layout of it against the blank wall- it looks like its drawn onto the wall itself!
