About artwork: Star Drop is a wall-based sculpture. It is made from a mix of felt, velvet, satin, faux fur and beading; and is squishy and soft to the touch. It is part of a larger series, which explores touch, intimacy, and connection from a trans and neurodivergent perspective. The intention of the piece is to provide a burst of joy, and positive, playful sensory stimulation. The piece is lightweight, and there is a hook attached to the back for hanging.
