As a jewelry artist, exploring and recording types of emotions is always essential for my art. I believe that emotions are important driving powers that provide people with real motivation for their behavior. Observing the different types of emotions through my experiences, literary works, and some research on psychology, I am especially interested in the emotions that express the delicate and intensive feelings and mostly hidden or ignored by people. I liken myself as a storyteller to narrate those life scenes that seem to be trivial and common, but it actually can express strong, intensive, and genuine emotions.
I am also interested in the relationship between jewelry and human bodies. I believe human bodies not only provide jewelry pieces with a place but also bring our bodies into art.
