“I have always been fascinated by the mysterious potential that metals have to offer and the opportunity of transforming their original properties in order to stretch the scope of what can be achieved.

What is particularly distinctive about my body of work is its structural form, created to deliberately play with negative and positive space. My jewelry designs testify to the textural dynamic and technical approach within my practice, seeming to have evolved organically, taking on an industrial influence. The varied interplay of colours and textures creates distinctive contrasts, evoking vividness of exquisite dimensions, which are rich, bold and engaging.

My objective has always been to transfer my emotions, creative passion and risk taking into my jewelry in an expressive way to arrive at exciting jewelry forms that elicit awe and inspiration, and personalize them in order to give my work a distinctive character.

Exploration and experimenting encourages my creative spontaneity to flourish, allowing me to focus on the development of my contemporary body of work giving me the opportunity to introduce new techniques and design possibilities to my practice.”
