Artist Statement

I want to capture the ephemeral, something which does not last. The ephemeral jewellery I am interested in is a mixture of performance art, video art, installation art and jewellery.


I use fire as a symbol for passing time and hope that the wearer might be attracted to the process it describes. Watching the jewellery burning on the skin can bring wonder and intrigue to the viewer, an effect mixed with elements of surprise and shock. It will both attract and repulse at the same time.
