Simon considers each piece as instigating an ongoing perceptual process that has the potential to unfurl over time, through intimate relationship with its wearer - almost all past work exists in this context today, in the lives of people who own and wear it. The pieces are meticulously made using extremely tough, durable, and stainless materials selected to withstand the lives of real people. All materials are sourced from discarded/waste product, yet are worked in ways that retain no visual memory of that history.
