About the work: “Sisters Iris, rose and Ivy (me, myself, and I) who are represented by the silver leaves, reminisce about their beauty of youth, fragility in old age, and loves that got away. Through the use of diaries and letters they have collected over the years, each sister quietly hides the letters/diary extracts in brooches they have stitched, as a way of keeping the memory close to their hearts. The brooches are pined over the heart of the wearer to guard against the loss of love and memory, entrapping it in! ”
