Golden Rock — pennies, amber resin, marble, 22" × 20", by Polen Cerci

Golden Rock

Golden Rock

Pennies and marble, mended in gold. Kintsugi in miniature. A penny is the least valuable object most people carry, and there are enough of them here, set in amber resin against marble, to make something nobody would throw away. The gold runs through the breaks in the stone in the usual Kintsugi manner, repairing it in the most visible way possible. It is the whole philosophy at the size of a held object: the cheapest material and the broken one, together, turning out to be worth looking at.
