It's the way of an idea from the inside, where it is invisible, to the outside; to the physical world where it is visible – it exists.
Most artists and artisans would agree that an idea becomes a three dimensional reality when it materialises into shape, volume, colour and texture – However, having the human condition as a point of reference in addition to the human body as the means to carry it, is specific to jewellery.
All the jewellery are made out of premium quality materials and exceptional techniques, result of enduring experimentation and thorough research. Each piece is unique and only one item is available. The pieces of the series are custome-made and created on demand, without the use of moulds or any kind of mass production methods.
