Collection Concept:

In my latest work, I explore the phenomenon of chance, error and intentionality in the context of the human condition. At large, how humans manifest its superficialities in opposition to spirituality. I am interested in creating minimalist and abstract objects subtly suggesting their source of origin. My self-developed technique allows me to create jewellery objects that are lightweight, naturally shaped, with an element of chance and unexpectedness that is carefully calculated in the process of creation. Most of my works evolve around ovals and circles because I see them as a primary form that carries deep, multi-layered symbolism. Those forms revolve around infinity, the absolute, internal harmony, and the spiritual elements.
