Garten.

This piece was first shown at Fools With Tools at Firehouse 13 in Providence, RI July 2008. The Olympia was a gift from metalsmith Josh Oftedahl, and the plant/soil was found at Young Farm in Little Compton, RI. The German typewriter was gutted and repurposed as a planter. The parts were used for components in jewelry work.  The keys have been rearranged to spell “Garten,” the German word for garden.

This piece is part of a private collection, but custom commissions are a possibility. Please, email abbysaunders@me.com for details.

Autobiography.

This piece was first shown at Bannister Gallery in Providence, RI in May 2005. The Remington Noiseless was a gift from metalsmith Sondra Sherman, and the space bar was hand engraved by George Beattie. Images are set and photo-etched in brass, and certain keys have been cast in brass. The keys have been ground away to create unintelligable type when struck.
