a jewellery maker, a florist. I love flowers since you can feel the wonder of
nature spontaneously when you appreciate them—feeling nature’s work when every
flower blooms into to various forms and every branch grows in a different
direction. We might believe all flowers look the same but close examination
reveals many beautiful, natural, complex differences to enjoy.
material that I use, and jewellery is the form that I choose for expression. Jewels not only decorate my dress but also
represent my style because they are shiny, exquisite, and wearable. Metals are
from nature but processed into raw, non-living material. To combine jewellery
and nature, show the vitality of metal and find a way to celebrate both metal’s
purity and permanence and the colorful and ever-changing life cycle of flowers is
what I want to develop.
