Artist Statement:
"Form as space"
…form quality alters space and creates an new beyond geometrical-phiysical limitations. My ideal and "free space"! A clear "emotional value" instead of aesthetic speculation. Possibility and potentiality of the form, "space in space", that arises solely out of the presence and intensity and quality of a "jewelry body" in connection with its wearer, as a new, fascinating possibility of experience and level of encounter…
