Statement:
Geometric forms are fascinating to me, the way basic connecting lines can create a playground for positive and negative spaces.
The use of rectilinear shapes such as the square within my pieces is chosen to create an interplay of space which is conveyed within puzzle like constructions. This emphasises form and function which are fundamental elements of my designs.
The choice of acrylic is generated by minimalistic principles as it is light weight and elegant, allowing the jewellery to be utilitarian. Each piece is multi-functional and once configured transforms from two dimensional flat pack to three dimensional architectonic constructions.
The selection of the monochrome palette is a representation of minimalism, on how the most basic contrasting colours are used to create simple but striking compositions.
