Personal-object assemblage heirlooms
Turn a family button tin or bicycle chains into a sculptural keepsake
Memento Art KC / Kristine Goettsch
Kristine Goettsch commissions sculptural keepsakes from clients’ sentimental objects rather than simply engraving a standard gift. Her examples include a functional bowl built from bicycle chains, mosaics incorporating inherited sewing buttons, and jewelry made from broken teacups. Clients can discuss transforming their own objects into a new heirloom.
