Through jewelry & metalsmithing, I create awareness about how we perceive value in our environment taking into consideration humanity, Land, and the technological era. My goal is to re-introduce how the old generation perceived value as compared to our contemporary world. Fascinated by the interplay of structural fabrication and surface texturing, I create my sculptural works using steel pipes, sheet and the repousse technique in metal art to depict and associate environmental element with a symbolic large scale cowrie shell. These exaggerated cowrie sculptures tell a story of the devaluation of humanity, our worth in the contemporary and how it has evolved with time. Addressing the need to reclaim and balance values between our environment and technological advancement.
