For Clean Lines, jeweller Katheryn Leopoldseder (Studio MG1) is working on large scale pieces constructed from hundreds of tiny recycled plastic communion cups. Exploring themes of stewardship, consumption, waste, sanctity, grace and redemption, the works reference the religious history of the convent.
An earlier work from this series (pictured), was included in the 2008 Blake Prize.
