While some people visualize words when they think, others images or colors, I often translate an idea into shapes and lines. This is not a conscious process, it just happens.
Transforming these shapes that I have in my head into little objects it is the most natural and joyful thing for me to do.
I have been creating jewelry for more than 2 decades and I am rooted in 3 countries, but when I at my workbench I forget everything around me and I get into a space that feels completely timeless. That is a place I call always home, wherever I am.
