To have and to hold
In a world where we rely on “facts”, we still live our day-to-day lives carrying convictions and traditions that remind us of myths and magic. I examine the connection between convictions and jewellery – the mark and perhaps vessel of the power of conviction.
The wedding ring is a symbol with close ties to expectations, hope, preconceived notions and demands, all highly individual and based on the individual’s own frames of reference, which gives each person their own interpretation of this symbol. Despite this I feel that is it viewed as a sort of universal given.
In my work I emphasize and highlight these parts, and examine the symbiotic relationship between those living around me and the objects and jewellery that they wear.
