The interconnection between humans and nature inspires me. Earth expresses herself in each organic element and therefore I use stones to embed its memory onto surfaces of my jewelry. I have an interest in deep conscience, time, community sentiment, the self, and the social-political questioning that comes from being a human being. I use organic geometrical shapes to create tactile pieces. When worn, one can admire an organic beauty, while feeling its past history and future trajectory. I allow the nature of my practice to dictate the forms and direction. Overall, I emphasize the rawness of nature and its momentary life span in metal and fibers.
I collect natural objects to make wearable jewelry because Earth expresses herself in each element and embeds her memory onto surfaces. Collecting is a way for me to admire and thank Pachamama for her endless abilities to reminisce and flood me with poetry. I use my hands to work with and for nature, to connect the body and soul, and find forms of adornment that are imbued with the natural world.
