Artist Statement:
My jewelry pieces are improvisations on themes of free
flowing as well as classical forms. The contrast between
sterling silver, often oxidized, and 22k gold inspires the
play with textures and patterns. Fine wires act similar to
lines in drawings, and the use of gold balls can be bold or
very delicate, depending on their sizes. I love luminous
cabochons, aquamarines for their silky luminosity and
largeness, tourmalines for the range of colors. My goal for
each piece is to keep an almost ancient simplicity, with the
overall collection reflecting complex references between
materials, colors, and textures. |
