and the natural world; our way of describing our surroundings us has become 
generic and homogenous as our language has shifted and evolved. 
However, in British minority languages and in specific regional vernacular, 
this is not the case.

 The ability to name features in the landscape with precision and detail afford
 the opportunity to experience natural phenomena with a greater degree of 
nuance, and connect us to nature in a more profound way.

This idea was the starting point for the Comashruth brooch. Drawings were 
produced by responding instinctively and intuitively to a large glossary
 of Gaelic words describing the specific characteristics of rivers. 

The brooch itself is made up of three different gauges of hammered wire 
which undulate and are graded from thin, to thicker, to thin again, 
mimicking the way the current of a river might pick up pace before 
becoming languid further downstream. 

The scale is small inviting closer inspection, just as the Gaelic words
 pertaining to rivers encourage and enable speakers to engage with and 
notice characteristics which may otherwise go unseen and 
underapprecaited.]]> 2023-02-27 09:41:38 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenhales2/f8gllm9iwi2xtnkc/wish/2496086459 imogenhales2 https://padlet.com/imogenhales2/f8gllm9iwi2xtnkc/wish/2496088373 2023-02-27 09:43:19 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenhales2/f8gllm9iwi2xtnkc/wish/2496088373 imogenhales2 https://padlet.com/imogenhales2/f8gllm9iwi2xtnkc/wish/2496089161 2023-02-27 09:44:04 UTC https://padlet.com/imogenhales2/f8gllm9iwi2xtnkc/wish/2496089161
