Star'n Knots Brooch, 2" round, fabricated from industrially painted aluminum, rubber knots, hydraulically formed, pierced and engraved, cold connected (a similar image, with slight variations, can be made upon request).
David calls his brooches “cartoonos roundos” because each piece tells a story similar to a cartoon panel in a newspaper. Punched from industrially painted aluminum sheets into 2” diameter circles, each piece begins with a sketch and is completed within two hours to keep the idea fresh and alive. Some brooches tell a clear story while others require words or symbols. David describes the story in words below:
"If we could only lasso the stars we want or need to guide us, perhaps the journey might be less stressful. But, then again, maybe not. Perhaps our movements, with or without the stars is still the magical, mystery of the universe."
