Inspired by the old saying 'never judge a book by its cover', Betty Pepper is an artist whose work combines jewelry, textiles and fine arts and craft. Her ongoing project "Book Keeping' uses aged fabrics and textiles, which seem to hold old memories and secrets. Her treatment of theses materials combined with the unique way she presents her jewelry adds to the feeling of gentle nostalgia. Pepper embeds her jewelry in books, which she cuts into to create a home for her jewelry, intrinsically lining them together.
I like the idea of using creativity to produce a keepsake. Love this x
