Object Detail
Description
Here the artist is playing with elements of the body of a piece of jewellery/ or setting that holds the feature (for instance a jewel). By not including a feature, it is the artist’s intention that the setting becomes the feature. This work is part of series where the artist goes back to the basics of jewellery shapes and craft/making asking questions about what a piece of jewellery really is.
