Never Letting Go is about the psychology, from a mother’s perspective, of holding on or letting go to memories of childhood and children.

I cast a series of my children’s toys in glass, which, now they have grown up, have become reliquaries of their soul at that age.  The pre-school toys, which are usually tough and unbreakable, become fragile and out of reach, a memorial to lost childhood.
