Collection concept - “Light Sparkling Passion”
Ingrid Adriaenssens's constant challenge is to express feeling and sensuality in her jewelry. What’s exciting for her is that both men and women can wear her creations. Designing and making jewelry grew from her passion for drawing. Details fascinate her because they can lead their own lives outside the larger whole. The sense of estrangement that stems from them is a seductive source of inspiration. Each of these ideas then lives on in her fascination for jewelry. The richness and three-dimensionality of the materials left her ample room to develop her own formal language. Among the guiding principles that help give expression to this formal language are life itself and literature, that very space where words forge sentences.
