I design and make contemporary jewellery using mixed media. Visual influences come from organic structures found in groups of leaves, bubbles, pebbles and other natural forms. This imagery is given a futuristic twist drawing inspiration from 60's geometric design and science fiction. I create my designs to function as adornment whilst retaining a fun playful quality.

My main collection is made from dyed acrylic combined with silver. AA2A has allowed me to extend my silver range and explore ideas involving simple mechanisms.
