Jewelry

This work brings together design, painting, textiles, and non-fibre materials in a unified, conceptual approach. It reflects an ongoing commitment to sustainability and the creative potential of what is often overlooked or discarded. The objects carry layered histories while becoming part of something entirely new.

Materials found on the street form an essential part of my process. Broken car glass, bicycle inner tubes, plastics, metal fragments, brass threads, aluminum coffee cups, and food peelings are carefully selected and repurposed.
By working almost exclusively with waste, I challenge conventional ideas of beauty and value, and open up new narratives around reuse and renewal. Each design is produced in a very limited edition, emphasizing the uniqueness of the materials and the importance of conscious creation.
