"My work is based on the theme "East meets West",
which is the meeting and the interplay between
materials and forms, methods, techniques
and literature. In every step of my jewelry creation
I combine the Eastern traditional boundaries
and the Western modern boundaries, reaching the
realm of where objects adorn the body using
contrast, tension, absence and presence.
Please discover and enjoy my creations"
