I’m an artist based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. In a departure from traditional approaches to jewelry, I’ve always been drawn to translating my large sculptural work into wearable forms. Melding fine art with fine craft, these pieces emerge directly from my concepts and materials in my studio practice. Currently working in bronze, these pieces explore the material’s timeless qualities, its sensual weight, and its historical ties to innovation and modernity.
This collection brings together my decades of exploration into the resonance between sweeping aerial networks of human-built landscapes and the intricate circuitry of micro-scale systems. Synthesized into conversation, these components create unique hybrid topologies. These works are sculpted by hand, cast bronze and finished in my studio. Each piece is completely unique and a distinctive, wearable statement.
Thank you for taking a look.
