Tiny sculptures

These sculptures are part of my #sydsmlgly submission.
They are made from paperclips.
Each sculpture measures less than 3 x 3 x 3 cm

Tiny mobile

These are the three cakes Psyche took to hell to feed to Cerebus, so she could get Pandora's box and be with Eros (despite her mother-in-law's murderous opposition).
Measures 2.2cm in diameter, 1.5 cm tall, suspended.
Cotton, beads, paper, ink

The writing is scans from my mother's application for employment with the Department of Education and a quote about dragons.

The Psyche Series for #sydsmlgly

This series of works is tiny: I'm submitting to Sydney's Smallest Gallery 2016, all works are maximum 3 x 3 x 3cm.
This page is one of my submissions (so I don't have to retype all of the details)
This series is inspired by Psyche's trials.
The entire series is made from miniature clothes pegs reconstructed.
Each piece is 3cm high, and the plinth they are standing on is 1.8cm in diameter.
I made these pieces on 6 December 2015.
