Necklace: Drowning Sorrows Shadow Dancing - Ritualistic Object #1, 2020
Greek coffee stirrers, bronze, polymer clay, silver dust, cord
Athenas Street. A pivotal axis in the city center that balances raw sensory experience, multi[cultural/social/gender] expressions and clashing energetic fields. Although it has a Goddess’s name, it has been and still is, run by men. I choose to examine through female lenses, emotional and/or ritualistic states that until lately belonged to the realm of the male.

Statement
The Ancient Greek word «kosmos» could be read as rhythm;Kosmos could also be read as adornment. Homeric epics describe how «kosmos» clothes the body as a second skin to make it appear.
Through my work I try to redefine «kosmos», designing adornments made of ordinary and overlooked everyday objects. Things that I de-construct and re-arrange in space/puzzles, that clothe the body while speaking of immaterial relationships: The precious and the non-precious; the beautiful and the ambiguous; the familiar and the unusual; the lasting and the ephemeral.
