'...with intention' 2012

it is relatively common knowledge (i think) that i love using ice resin in my work in different ways... 

while designing this piece, i became concerned about the stability of the tablet... at the moment it is on tightly, but what if the fiber wears or stretches?

i then remembered that ice resin can be used like a glue... 

it's true!

and so i went back, and 'glued' the tablet onto the metal plate... 

then i 'glued' leather into some end caps to hold them firmly and create a smooth look... 

i can now sell this piece confident in its durability - which is of great importance to me... 

give it a try!
