:::::::::: One of a kind Jewelry ::::::::::

In this body of work, I explore ideas surrounding culture, identity and memory and create jewelry that encourages reflection through concept and interaction with the wearer. Whereas much jewelry is simply used to adorn the body, my work considers issues relevant to both the individual and society.

Whether in the form of a necklace, bracelet or brooch, the artwork becomes a tactile and intimate experience for the viewer. As a whole, the pieces come together to illustrate a narrative based on interpersonal as well as sociopolitical relationships, often evoking a feeling of nostalgia and sentiment.

In this form of jewelry, I utilize materials such as metal, glass, antique photographs and objects found in my late grandparents’ home. I am inspired to investigate and create in order to satisfy my desire for clarity and the understanding of life and its complexities.
