Dan Cormier used die-forming, custom textures, and “BioForming” to create his White Necklace. He says, “ ‘BioForming’ is the name I give to a polymer clay technique I developed, its origins in silhouette die forming in metal.” The smallest beads are 1 x 1 in. (25.5 x 25.5 mm) and the largest 1 1/4 x 2 1/4 in. (32 x 57 mm). Photo by Robert Diamante. This piece appeared in the July 2008 issue.
