Rituals of Making

We were given the oppertunity to sit on a lecture
with three local artists, i really enjoyed it
myself the artists weren't to my taste but i just
enjoy to get a few new artists known.
This is Sue Lawty the first artist we got to look at
she was nice to listen too but i didn't really
get her field of expertise. She sort of did
little bits in alot of different things, metal,
stone, wood and even land art.
This piece is my faveriote of hers that ive seen,
  obviously being a smithy i am drawn towards
looking at metal so this peaked my attention.
The process is looping lead wire around
itself and being hammered flat
to produce a really different images.
Something that really made me think was when
she mentioned that the paper underneath
the lead made a really different looking 
picure.
