Jewellery for me is sculptural art within the limits of wearabilty, volume and stability.
By creating solid wood-like blocks of layered paper I design a material that fulfils these criteria.
My intention is to create jewellery that elicts a desire to touch and feel it.
I want to stimulate the sense of touch as well as the eye.
During the carving process I feel the form with my fingertips and develop sensitivity for the form in dialogue with the material, which allows me to intuitively expose its essential qualities. This design process is based on my tactile sense of aesthetics and my physical perception. In this way, every piece is unique and can't be exactly duplicated.
