Jaydan Moore is a metalsmith and printmaker living in the USA. He is motivated by how an object moves through the world, changing in meaning as it is passed down, and how it is cherished as its significance grows. This history of objects has led to his continued exploration of heirlooms, imagining how their previous owners may have affected these objects. Revealing evidence of wear by the dings, scratches, and patination that can be read on its surface, he believes that the past still lives within a new object–that nothing is lost, only given a new history.
