Artist Statement:
The work I create exhibits methods of construction using traditional metalsmithing and jewelry design techniques, processes found in ceramics, and glass working. In this jewelry series, I’ve incorporated glass fusing, slumping, and cold working as this material offers a wide range of exciting possibilities including effects of translucency and reactive qualities when combining/fusing with different metals. This body of work is playful research into design, integrating other disciplines, and further defining jewelry in my studio practice.
