Ornaments from banknotes

Do you know that expression "money has nowhere to go?" Lauren Tickle exactly familiar. It takes dollars - and only in US dollars! - And makes of them, I must say, quite beautiful jewelry. How much can they cost? Definitely is more than cover the cost of spent currency. Besides money Lauren uses silver, latex, silk thread.








Tickle writes about his jewelry as a concept.

Money - a modern microcosm, the idea, the concept, the fruit of the labor of people and their basis. Do the distance between the real and the nominal value of money. Is money worth by themselves?






My customers think about the huge splashes issues, buying jewelry. My work is to make money, we can say, manifested in space. You can see them in a social context.


In his works, Lauren prefers to use only US currency, fueling her special passion and seeing it as a special connotation.
