On Display

New work needs titles, and for me this is always a time of deliberation and great pondering. With my work being based around the idea of armour, the obvious sprang to mind; defence, barricade, boundary, but these seemed a little flat.

Inspiration hit from the direction of my boyfriend who mentioned Roman military formations.  The words 'lorica segmentata' began an indulgent hour of research.

'Murus', Lorica Squamata' and 'Scutum'

'Lorica Segmentata'


'Caermonialis'
'Vessels'
