Specifically, my interests lie in creating pieces that combine child-like color and pattern with forms that are organic and biomorphic in nature. Through the use of specific color combinations and patterns, my work creates a dialogue that speaks to the bold, more playful side of the wearer. In contrast, my organic forms and use of dramatic curves and shapes give each piece a very clean, sophisticated feel. My process involves both the exploration of physical and visual aesthetic along with the intentional use of precious and semi-precious materials to help create a visual experience that is evocative, playful, and tasteful. These pieces are intended to engage the wearer's senses in multiple ways while bringing attention to the relationship between color and form.Student worksengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
