Sandra Kochan shared her Wearable Sculpture titled: ‘Collar for Uncertain Times’
The project is a sculptural collar which, through a range of materials, reflects our uncertain times.
The sculpture reads from the bottom to the top where the materials used represent such things as Nature, The People, Calamity, Connection and faith, Autocracy along with Disorder and Protection.
Sandra only purchased the frame wire, the evil eye beads and the toy soldiers, everything else was found in her stash or repurposed.

An amazing piece😍. Sandra thank you for sharing with us and allowing us to share with others.
