These little coins, inspired by an illustration I did some years ago, are grounding objects. A grounding object is a physical object that can be held or touched to help people focus and distract themselves from unpleasant emotions or memories. Some people choose objects with a special meaning or memory, while others prefer objects with interesting or soothing textures.
For me rabbits are an important agent and recurrent theme in my exploration of PTSD, dyslexia, ADHD and autism that I myself with. Apart from the fact I was born in the zodiac year of the rabbit, rabbits in my work, symbolise the fight, flight and freeze response which is experienced in many neurodiversity's and most notably in PTSD.
My fine art installation pieces and current work are intended to instigate healthy conversations within society around these neurodiversity's and how sharing experience of life altered post trauma is one of the first steps in healing process.
This item can be kept inside or outside but as with most ceramics it should be brought in if frost is expected.
