My work
My philosophy is to make jewellery that is pure and uncomplicated. Inspired by simple forms, I create geometrical boxy shapes that are threaded through bold coloured elastic. The elastic is used to contrast against the brushed silver creating playful pieces of jewellery. The wearer can interact with their jewellery, pulling and pinging the elastic. Development within my jewellery is paramount; I continue to push my collection in new directions, with the search for new techniques and materials.
