About MeThe 'Snow Ball' Ring is one of several exhibits by Nora Fok, which formed part of the Princess Su Su exhibition. The exhibition was conceived by Suzanne Langston-Jones, with contributions from herself and several other artists.

Nora Fok uses nylon filaments and plastics knitted and woven together to create light, yet strong, sculptured pieces which illustrate her concerns as regards nature and current events.
More About Me
The ring is made from nylon thread, a material Fok found easy to work with at home with little equipment.
