'Ceremonial Biscuit', a life-size biscuit cast in 18ct gold, is a pendant that balances it’s precious medium with the strong contrast of its subject - the unvalued, partially eaten biscuit. Typical of Turk’s artistic practice the signature is a central part of the work. Clear and legible on the biscuit’s face, each signature is hand-engraved by the artist.
