Extended Bio
I am fascinated with jewellery as a timeless medium for both personal and collective cultural expression as well as its diversity in form, materials and colour.
In my collections, I focus on recurring themes inspired by nature and life, often keeping the designs simple yet rich in texture, reminiscent of the coastlines and landscapes of Scotland, where I've lived for many years, as well as my homeland in Africa.
I enjoy working with various metals and stones, including both precious and semi-precious materials, and I like to incorporate unique accents to add embellishments to my pieces.
Recently, I've been exploring modern designs using dyed and coloured anodised aluminium, which has been an exciting new medium for me to work with.
