I am an artist jeweller working with precious and semi-precious materials, incorporating a considered design process together with laborious hand fabricating and finishing techniques. My practice explores the passage of time with its associated erosion and corrosion, resulting in eminently wearable sculpted forms encrusted with layers of textures, pearls and patinas.
