about the work

A powerful piece of jewellery is an essence; it is resulted from fusion of humility and desire. The fusion is a quality that comes only while controlling its’ richest saturation – poisonous in a big doses. Artist is a perfumer whose fragrance takes physical form only when created by previously written recipe. It’s all somehow intimate. Artist and jewellery become shy lovers allured by unsaid words of love. My collectible jewellery is for big ego and can be treated as contemporary relics. Involving high technologies into a creative process, these works merge innovative and sensual worlds — digitally modified baroque treasures. The topics of my works include androgyny, tactility and digital culture.
