The gemstone is the force that drives me in my creative work. On the one hand, it is the exploration of the materiality and the approach to the limits & secrets of the stones. On the other hand, it is the semiotic charge, meaning and use of gemstones, especially the diamond, in our society. In a reciprocal process of grasping and grasping, new pieces and spaces emerge for the wearer.
The feelings create the form.
They nestle.
Protecting the wearer.
