Christina Karakalpaki
Lachesis

This piece is part of a series of artistic jewellery created for an exhibition on ancient myths. My inspiration was the myth of the “Three Moirai” (3 Fates).

The "Three Moirai" are said to allot each person with a specific merit of life; of time upon this Earth. In Greek Mythology, Fate is personified by the “Three Moirai”, or the “Three Spinners”: Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos.

Materials: leather, acrylic, aluminum, electrostatic paint, bronze, plexiglass
