 Clipped (#1)

 

repurposed paper clips, brass, nickel necklace, 14 1/2 x 10 inches

 

 

The office I work in has a surplus of paperclips and one of the employees keeps ordering more.  I made this piece trying to find a better purpose for these paperclips. I specifically took them without asking to also reference the fact that American office workers feel that it is their right to help themselves to office supplies.
