The terms we use for various shapes are simple generalizations of a concept–squares are anything with four straight equal side, a circle has a circumference that moves around a center point with equal distance and a triangle is nothing more than a shape with three straight sides. Using that simple definition as a jumping off point, you can push the triangular shapes into variations of the definition. In the case here,\u00a0B\u00e9n\u00e9dicte\u00a0Bruttin<\/a> rounds off all the triangular sides and even has one scoop down to create something closer to an arrow, although, I see boomerangs more than anything. Regardless, the shape is very directive, pointing down in a series with these little points of additional focus in the beads used to hang them, filling in the space scooped out of the standard triangle shape. Altogether, this makes for a rather dynamic set of beads. The subtle crackling on the surface–another series of lines that denote movement–doesn’t do them any harm either.<\/p>\n

There has been a lot of\u00a0B\u00e9n\u00e9dicte’s<\/a> work making the rounds on Pinterest. It’s a really strong body of work you’ll find on her Flickr page <\/a>as well, with a fun contemporary \u00a0look and lots of shape play. Check it out<\/a>!<\/p>\n
