“Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.” I started researching the wonders of nature from an artists perspective and found so many incredibly complex life forms that were organically beautiful. There’s many parallels between our journey as humans, with the ups and downs we endure to become who we truly are, and the beauty and uniqueness of these natural formations. This perspective has been the driving factor to all of my work.

Recently I’ve been thinking about the different patterns and designs that surrounds my life. Whenever it is cultural, environmental, or just random organic shapes and colors, we’re surrounded by all different types of patterns that makes our lives very unique. I’ve been exploring the idea of what really influences us and what I allow myself to be influenced by. This project was my ideas to explore reused materials and the patterns I love during my time as a jewelry designer for 10 years and how much it has influenced me now.
