Description
My name is Chris O'Regan and I work in the medium of Celtic Metalwork. The High Cross is found throughout the Celtic Nations and is exclusive to these lands. It's uniqueness is found in the circle that surrounds the Cross and the geometrical patterns that lie within this circle. The Cross incorporates ancient patterns used prior to the arrival of Christianity. The symmetry found in this work shows a fine detail and a simple elegance. A resist is applied of the pattern to the copper,so when it is etched in acid,a bottom layer is eaten away and a top layer is left where no copper is dissolved. The piece is then dipped into a chemical liquid that turns it entirely black, permanently. It is sanded with sandpaper stripping the patination off the top layer revealing the copper but leaving it black on the lower surface. Each piece is hand-crafted,etched and patinated by myself and each work is unique. It is sealed by an acrylic spray on both sides to protect the artwork and the wearer. Supplied with an adjustable roped polyester cord (NZ made) Comes with a card with a description of the work and how it is made. Made from recycled copper. 60mm x 40 mm (2 1/2 inches by 1 3/4)
