The contextual framework for my metal and enamel work is one of personal catharsis to disturbing political events and social frameworks. My jewelry and small sculptures metaphorically exemplify the seemingly opposing dynamics of strength vs fragility, durability vs vulnerability. However, what may be perceived as weakness in reality can be a great asset bringing its own source of strength and power. This series suggests the need to nurture and protect this interdependence of duality, my commitment for a moral and ethical humanity.
