Ivy: A Future Entwined

Price on Request

Crafted from recycled silver in the Clodagh Molloy’s studio, Ivy: A Future Entwined  in a neck collar that takes the form of ivy leaves that encircle the neck and shoulders. The use of reclaimed material acknowledges the earth’s limited resources, while ivy,  resilient, interconnected, and ever-growing, symbolises humanity’s inextricable bond with the natural world. The piece becomes a quiet reminder of our dependence on living systems and the responsibilities that come with it.

 

By transforming a material once mined at ecological cost into a gesture of renewal, Ivy invites reflection on care, continuity, and the futures shaped by our choices today.

 

Materials: recycled sterling silver.

 

Measurements: 390 x 290 x 40cm.
