A Roman bronze key transformed into a sculptural 750 gold choker
At the centre of The Keeper sits an original Roman bronze folding key, preserved as it has survived for nearly two millennia. Rather than recreating the past, AVM keeps the artefact at the heart of the piece, framing it within sculptural 750 gold while allowing every mark of its long history to remain visible.
Once created to unlock a physical object, it now opens something less tangible: a connection to the lives, hands, and stories of those before us.
