Antique Bohemian trade beads, Kankamba, vulcanite, silver, agate, seed beads
mm high
68mm wide
mm deep
One point five features four strands of antique trade beads in fiery oranges and yellows, symbolising Earth’s rising temperature. For millennia, trade connected cultures – but also moved resources and emissions, creating imbalance. The balance of this necklace also took some skill and it’s a metaphor for the 1.5 degree climate threshold, where centuries of exchange now demand a reckoning: how much more?
Please note, this artwork is currently on exhibition at Belconnen Arts Centre and will not be available for pick-up or delivery until the exhibition has closed. Please check the Belco Arts website for exhibition dates.
