Exploring structure at every scale

Transformation: Flamingo //

Created following the exhibition at of Transformation during NYCxDESIGN this month.

Originally conceived as a sculptural domestic object, the work has been translated into wearable form as a small-batch pendant cast in 14K rose gold and suspended on an oxidized sterling silver chain.

Until now, my jewelry has only existed among family and friends. This is the first public release of the work.

A set of cast aluminum coat hooks exploring how small domestic objects shape the rituals of home—arrival, pause, return.

The forms emerged through negotiation: balancing contrasting instincts, then resolving them into a family that holds together without erasing difference. Each piece is both functional and symbolic—carrying what we bring in, and quietly marking the shift from outside to inside.

Home, here, isn’t sameness. It’s equilibrium.

Equilibrium //

A composition in motion—two lines drawn toward each other, each arc altered by the meeting. Then, a third form appears, grounding the whole. In their shared movement, a quiet balance emerges.
