connie ulrich: road kill!!!

Yesterday’s post featured Jane South’s interpretation of what she sees riding her bike through the streets of New York.  Today we look at Connie Lurich, another artist inspired by long bike rides.  As the jewelry artist rides through the back roads of Alabama and Tennessee, she collects pieces of rusted steel that she finds on the side of the road. Lurich has been having a good time incorporating this ‘road kill’ into her designs.

“The notion of balance has characterized my view of the world and how I choose to live and create in it. In my work, I blend the materials and shapes of the natural world with my fascination for architectural form.” Connie Ulrich

Ulrich’s other collections of more traditional hand forged jewelry can be found here and here.

    I am a collector of found objects. Now I have a better idea of how to put together my objects into what I think is art. Thanks for sharing. Lynn W
