HIROMI SUTER
Designer biography:
Japanese-born Hiromi Suter creates delicate and story telling hand pierced jewelry in her Massachusetts, USA studio. She blends with various colors to produce “in between” hues with her latest technique of gilding and foiling. She chooses a slow process to make one-of-a-kind and limited editions. Her works have been exhibited internationally and nationally including the exhibition, MAD about Jewelry in 2022.
Collection concept:
When I started designing this work, there was still a lot of snow outside. Looking at that sight I felt something warm from beneath. Although the outside temperature was still low, it felt there was a breath of life that indicated that spring was approaching. When I closed my eyes, something “tender”came into my mind. They look like flowers, but they are not. I wanted to express some kind of tenderness with bright colors in this three-dimensional world. Even though almost everything in nature is not perfect, as a whole it is perfectly beautiful. I feel like it's even more appealing because it's not perfect in a way. I hope that when people view this work, they could also feel the sound. A symphony of nature.
