ALLUSIONS, 2023

amber dust, epoxy resin, silver, steel

The idea of the collection is to depict authentic personal childhood or family memories. To convey their allusions in jewelry in a new and unique way. Probably more than one person has similar memories that they can recreate after seeing my jewelry. Imagining certain moments of shared presence, I want to convey to my children, my children’s children, how important the family is, its values, the legacy of feelings. My memories are not specific events or stories, they are more actions that repeat themselves through me with my children, and it becomes my personal interpretation, thanks to which each viewer can recreate their own memories. The viewer, after seeing my collection, can recreate certain moments of his life in his memory. I aspire for everyone who sees my work to extend my narrative and share similar experiences. The Allusions collection is a set of four brooches and a necklace consisting of cast amber dust reliefs and linear silver designs. This is my personal childhood memories combined with current memories. The pin is made from a drawing of a son looking through the binoculars of his fingers, it is an allusion to my childhood view.
