This is my latest collection. I have been inspired by 3-dimensional geometric forms, such as prisms and other mathematical shapes. I have taken inspiration from rigid and symmetrical concepts and worked in asymmetric but elegant disorder. The result is a collection of pendants that inhibit 3-dimensional space in both a structured but fluid manner.
A second theme that runs through this work is that of stitching. In the past I have worked with traditional jewellery materials and methods, such as silver that is soldered together. In contrast, this collection is made from stainless steel which is printed using new technologies. The separate elements are joined using the stringing element that creates the rest of the neckpiece.
