New work

I create wearable pieces with a narrative quality; using images and text on paper set in resin, to tell all or part of a story. Trying to evoke memories of the past that are individual to the wearer, doing so through texturing precious metal with vintage lace patterns and sillouhettes taken from old photgraphs. I like to encorprate movement into my pieces adding  an interactive childlike quality.
