This is my entry for The John Ruskin Prize, called "Seeing the Unseen, Hearing the Unspoken" – the UK’s largest art that regularly attracts over 4,000 entries from around the world.
Engraved, on the head of a gold pin, is my interpretation of the theme, “Seeing the Unseen, Hearing the Unspoken”. I was selected as one of the 40 finalists at the Society’s exhibition in London, in February 2024, The John Ruskin Prize.
Graham Short “Daddy, I wish...” Hand engraved on a gold pin measuring 3mm wide “Daddy, I wish...” is hand-engraved, using a very fine needle, on the head of a gold pin. Engraving at such microscopic levels is a slow process. The artist lowers his heart rate to 20 beats a minute, then engraves between heartbeats when he is perfectly still. This piece took eight weeks to complete.
It was a champagne event, and I met many fellow artists, but if I’m being honest, I was disappointed that I had not won! The John Ruskin Prize
