VARIABLE ROTATION ON ONE BREAST, 1976


The vision and craftsmanship of jewellery maker Ruudt Peters surfaces again in his work with “rotations”. Here you will find a small silver bar which can be fastened to your breast, adjusted to reflect their elevation. The bar is first rotated on the vertical axis: your breast is at a fixed angle with the floor. You will find a gauge in the box which will allow you to determine this angle for yourself. Fill in the figure on the enclosed response card, and the number desired (of the edition of 100). Your bar(s) will be personalized, because they are now be rotated on the internal horizontal axis, and can be  secured correctly on you alone. (The last two turns are specified on the base, but the vertical rotation can be determined only by you.)
