'Changes in state' is my current collection of wearable pieces, that have been inspired by architecture and its constant change through destruction and development over the years.
I like to combine mixed materials including concrete and diamonds, enamel paint and precious metals, rubber and patina with traditional skills and modern design technology, to create my jewellery collection.
My collection is made up of both one off wearable art pieces including statement brooches and rings that provoke thought with its wearer as to how they can be worn; as well as a collection of luxury contemporary fashion pieces, designed for everyday wear and special occasions, which includes stacking rings and pendants, keeping my bold, geometric style throughout.
