Statement

I have an intuitive approach to jewellery. My jewellery making is like material painting. I paint collages with various materials, different shapes and colors, assembling them and letting them play and communicate together. I use important objects from my life: things from childhood, jewellery from my family, objects collected from different times and countries.

By the use of cast plastic, I capture all of them in one moment.

With the silicone casting method I found a way to connect these diverse elements and transform them into one single piece of jewelry. Unify all these objects in the same color, the same materiality. So afterwards everything is in harmony, has the same value and equality.

Seeing things with new eyes, turning them around, turning things on their head, and seeing what happens - questioning the old and familiar and the boundaries between precious and non-precious. I am interested in their transformation.

Making jewelry is a very personal way of expression.
My pieces are the reflection of myself, my ideas, thoughts and feelings shaped into form, material and color. Jewellery is my language, my means of expression. The transcription of me and my surroundings into material.
