Sterling silver book chain, hand engraved, oxidized and keum-boo. The collection RITES utilizes highly traditional techniques (such as hand painting, enamel, and micromosaic) juxtaposed with the modern, especially 3D printing. This imagery is deeply personal and reflective of my childhood, exploring themes of reconnecting, the relationship between Roman Catholic tradition and Métis ceremony, and my discovery of my place amongst it all. Techniques: keum-boo, fabrication, casting.
