Running Man Bangle, Silver.

'Running Man' bangle inspired by Eadweard Muybridge's images capturing humans in motion. The bangle is made entirely from sterling silver, with each running man pierced from 0.5mm sheet, then hardened, shaped and polished before being rivited onto the bangle.

I designed this bangle for my cousin (he and his girlfriend live in North Wales and Wigan), and he wanted something that expressed the distance (and the link) between them. I used a map of the North Wales coast and the layout of the road to create a seemingly abstract design that would have significance for the wearer.

The two lines you can see represent the coastline between Llandudno and the Wigan area, and overlaying that is the road that links the two houses.
