Showcasing International contemporary jewellery Artists

I use the rope and knot as a symbol of intimate relationship.
Most works originate from observation on the symbolic meaning
of the knot and rope. They make me think of marriage, belief,
and important connections that I have always considered significant
parts of life. Using them allows me to comment on my personal experiences.
The use of rope and knots relate to me both physically and conceptually
implying emotional intimacy.

My recent work is associating the idea of intimacy in jewelry objects to the
body while the rope or cord functions as a vehicle which conveys metaphorical
meaning of connection. When the piece is on the body, it seems to penetrate
or bind the wearer. I feel that it expresses the physical and conceptual
connection between piece and wearer. It is important to me that the wearer can
be able to relate to the symbolic meaning of the rope and at the same time feel
themselves tied and connected with the rope or cord while wearing my work.
It is very meaningful in promoting the intimacy between wearer and the work itself.
