starting to emerge

but already buzzing with new life

as a totem imbued with the spirit of the animals humans so often deem unworthy of our fair treatment and life itself

With this brooch

Gifts from the Cat Earrings memento_mori_earrings width: 7/8"These earrings are inspired by the little animals surrounding my rural home that have gotten caught by cats or foxes, only to have their body parts hoarded like treasure and left at the doorstep or strewn around the yard. The enamel rabbit heads have a mixture of red beads spilling out, adding movement and beauty while also depicting blood. A few freshwater pearls accent the read beads, mimicking maggots starting to burrow out. materials: enamel,
