- Design Challenge
- I wanted to mix many different looks in one necklace. Building from a vintage buckle that has a Victorian feel, for one contrast I chose a Native American inspiration with rings and chain. Another contrast I wanted something soft, delicate and feminine and chose wings with delicate chain and beads connected with mesh chain, and finished off with a chunky brass chain that gives it a modern, slightly fetish look.
The challenges was: combining different looks in one necklace, making the necklace look good sit well in three different ways. - Research
- In my whole creative life I have always tried to challenge myself. I have always been interested in making the most out of the torso. The neck, the back, the front, the shoulders, the arms, the waist. Finding the balance with weight. Come up with interesting designs that are wearable and comfortable.
