I have always employed my special artistic language, geometric construction, which is a never-ending inspiration for me. I have always worked in silver. I believe that silver is a material I know very intimately and I have learnt to work with it. By working with silver, I demonstrate my respect for it. It is the material that can return what I put into it. My jewellery and objects bear all the signs of today. At the same time they express the reflection of today’s over-engineered world.-
