Artist Statement:
The pieces that I design are developed under the aspect of perceiving jewelry as an experimental object. The focus of my work is upon surface design. Inspiration for the form is drawn from the interaction between humans and nature. Organic shapes, fragile, brittle, multi-layered, suspenseful. |
