No, You Go Down the Slide First – Handmade brooch by NancyDee Sculptures

When I first made this brooch with those pink pieces of plastic on the back of a metal maintenance record, I thought they were twin seal trainers. However, when I showed it to someone at my studio, she immediately said that the two in pink were deciding who should go down the slide first. I thought they looked very polite, so I named it ‘No, You Go Down the Slide First’, instead of ‘No, I Get to Go Down the Slide First’.

Nancy Dee

Sculptures & brooches from upcycled street and beach found objects

My name is Nancy D Lane. I am a found object assemblage artist working as NancyDee Sculptures. I love creating sculptures, brooches and art magnets from the metal, wood, tile and plastic I find on streets and beaches – mostly in Melbourne, though on my travels as well.My works range in size from less than 2×2cm to more than 2 metres. My art is inspired by the challenge of happenstance, using only the materials I pick up on my daily walks.I work as an artist in residence at River Studios in West Melbourne. I have had 7 solo exhibitions and participated in more than 60 group exhibitions. Most importantly, I am commited to sustainability and hope that my creative use of unloved and unwanted trash will serve as a reminder of the 5Rs: refuse, reduce, repurpose, reuse, and recycle.
