Statement
Jewelry is like a biography. It’s a story that tells many chapters of our life. / Erin WassonThrough this presentation, you’ll be able to see the chapters of my story and the rewriting of my path from painter to jewelry artist.
As a visual artist, my relationship with jewelry is bidirectional. My jewelry is influenced from my artistic research.
Observation and painting require the engagement of all of our senses, thus, in my work I draw on memory and therefore on my senses.
Addressing jewelry as micro-sculpture, I refer to form, material, colors and texture to conceptualize personal memories and my view of social and cultural issues into art.
Dialogue with shadows
The antithesis of the strict framework and the organic forms depict our social behavior, our sentiments though our real self.
This work is a dialogue and an exploration of one’s personal shadow.
Shadow is a psychological term for everything we can’t see in ourselves. From our early age we adjust our behavior to gratify our needs and learn to adapt to the external world. As we grow up we condition ourselves to keep all the unaccepted parts of us outside our conscious awareness, though, we drag them ‘behind us’ all the time in our subconscious.
This repression of unwanted parts creates what psychologist Carl Jung called the personal shadow. ‘There is no light without shadow and no psychic wholeness without imperfection’ *
* Jung, C.G. (1968). Psychology and Alchemy, Collected Works of C.G. Jung, Volume 12, Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press
SHADOWS collection, 2016.
The embodiment of a fantasy world populated with shadows, exotic birds, grotesque demons and fairies, an exploration of the aesthetic and literary values of such creatures and the real and symbolic nature of the shadow as an image and a figure.
We are aware of a tiny fraction of the thinking process that goes on in our minds, and we can control only a tiny part of our conscious thoughts. The vast majority of our thinking efforts go on subconsciously.
Thoughts like birds will always hover high in the sky butis our responsibility to prevent the ‘birds’ from landing in our minds. Those creatures become symbolic statements and represent obsessions, our ideas and fears or projections of our subconscious. Based on this approach, they are merely symbolic representations of human psychological states.
MEMORIES collection, 2015.
As a visual artist, I transfer onto my work pictures, stimuli and sentiments, through numerous sketches, colors and forms. This material comprises the basis of my latest jewelry series, which stems from my personal memories, deals with the density of the substance.
Paper stripes, in dense or attenuated layers, create forms of multiple colors. Then, bonded and attached to silver become symbols. Symbols of past imprints and memories that have lost their actuality, since time and personal renderings - feelings, subjective readings, even mind distortions - transforms them into something open to interpretation.
