Wade Driscoll
Armored Triskelion
Prompt: We were tasked with creating a piece of wearable art inspired by a culture of our choosing.
Based on the ancient Celtic people from central Europe, I designed a piece of wearable art to honor their traditions of body art and wearable design. I was inspired by the symbols that appeared in the time, such as the triskelion, which represents things that come in threes as well as many cycles. More notably, I was inspired by the craft of chainmail, which is thought to originate from the Celts. I used wire to craft twisted jump rings, which I joined together in a patterned formation to form chainmail
