This assemblage artwork entwines vintage fragments into a poetic reminder of life’s first connection. A mother and child are symbolised through doll forms, antique keys, the yale lock of safety, each piece stitched together in a suspended narrative. The work speaks of memory, inheritance, and love that lingers beyond time, making it a strikingly peculiar keepsake for those drawn to the sentimental and surreal. Both curious and tender, it carries the echo of family bonds preserved in artful form.


From the very beginning, a child grows tethered to their mother by the invisible lifeline of the cord. That cord, though cut at birth, is never truly broken—it lingers as an unseen thread of love and memory. Through every heartbeat and every passage of time, the bond endures, binding mother and child across distance and years. It is both fragile and unbreakable, a connection that remains long after the first breath is drawn.
