| My current collection, ‘I wish I was born in the 60’s’, is inspired by 1960’s fashion prints, with a mix of bold bright colours and fun floral shapes. I use mainly anodised aluminium and silver, with glittering touches of cubic zirconium in unique, petal inspired, claw settings. My work centres on combining vivid colours of the anodised aluminium, and complementing them with brushed silver that emphasise their vibrancy.
Currently, my pieces are produced as more large-scale jewellery, from large arm cuffs to long floral garlands, with a mix of colourful and interchangeable oversized ‘cocktail’ rings. Each piece ranges in thickness depending on the location it is to be worn. Some, such as the cocktail rings, are stacked to create height where as the cuffs are made from thick aluminium. Each technique allows me to play with the dimensions of the pieces and deliver the qualities of aluminium; mainly its surprising light weight. My aim is to create light and playful pieces, with a lively visual impact. My future collection will be a continuation of the ‘I wish I was…” collection, where I will be exploring more time periods, in particular medieval and other themes such as swashbuckling pirates. I love exploring different eras in fashion and interiors to find inspiration for new and exciting jewellery while also delving into stories and legends. My work involves a more graphic approach to which prints and shape provide the perfect framework to create energetic 3D pieces from flat 2D inspiration. I enjoy piecing together compositions and positioning colours within a piece. |
