My training in sculpture strongly influences my work, which I hope portrays a natural strength of form and an understanding of proportions. My designs are arrived at through an organic, ongoing process, which meanders from experimentation to natural conclusion. I am very much inspired by the beauty and edginess I see in my surroundings. The combinations and components in nature and life, and the multiples that build to create strength. I love the mixture of strong and fragile, and solid forms sitting comfortably with something quite delicate. Many pieces of my jewellery have moving parts, which are there to connect the wearer to the jewellery and to help it become part of their identity. I hope to make wearable, original jewellery that will be treasured.
