About
My artistic practice emerges from a desire to capture the beauty of everyday moments and their essence. I look into different ways of transferring images and their atmosphere into jewellery.
In my graduate collection I was 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 express what cannot be captured in a photo but rather remains in our minds. To capture ephemeral layers of everyday encounters and convey a dynamic fragility of a passing moment.
I let the piece guide me to its creation by experimenting with materials and techniques,
uch as laser engraving, enamelling, CNC milling or powdercoating.
Multiple layers of life
dissected from dimensions of a photograph create a collage of visuals,
materials, and memories.
Afterimage is a collage of visuals, materials, feelings, and memories. They are collected snippets of life locked into an object. 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, enamelling, CNC milling or powdercoating. Rather than presenting a specific image I leave the room for interpretation so that the viewers can discover imagery and feelings they relate to in this play of light and shadow
