“What I find really fascinating, and one of the reasons why it’s so
interesting to make jewellery, is the moment of recognition when
something that comes across cute and pretty has on second glimpse an
almost obscene grotesqueness.
“Of course the ring wants to be beautiful. The technique also
wants to be beautiful, and most often it’s the idea that wants to be the
most beautiful. But sometimes a ring likes nothing better than to sit
in the mud and not give a damn about how it looks. If it’s exactly what
it wants to be in a given moment, it is precise, perfect and the most
beautiful”.
