About:
In a small workshop, using silver sheet and wire, I craft each piece by hand. I hammer, saw, pierce, solder, and forge the silver into different shapes and forms. Some pieces are complicated, requiring many different steps and solder joints, others use few steps to create simple and elegant designs. Special consideration is given to the type of finish that is applied. I polish, brush and/or oxidize (blacken) the pieces, depending on the intention of the design.

I use these traditional metalsmithing techniques to transform raw material into forms that explore the link between the industrial and organic worlds.

My pieces serve as personal decoration, but each one stands alone as a work of art.
