NoteMy artistic practice stems from the desire to capture the beauty of everyday moments and their essence. I look into different ways of transferring images and their atmosphere into jewellery.
Inspired by various interpretations of afterimage, an image that continues to appear in the eyes after a period of exposure to an original image, I wanted to capture ephemeral layers of everyday encounters and convey a dynamic fragility of a passing moment.
Digital edits and ink drawings are adorned with gemstones, to highlight the preciousness of a memory, and elements of hand carved ebony, to evoke a warm feeling of nostalgia. I let the piece guide me to its creation by experimenting with materials and techniques, such as laser engraving, cnc milling, electroforming, powdercoating or enamelling.
Rather than presenting a specific image I leave the room for interpretation so that the viewers can discover imagery and feelings they relate to.
