« I combine unexpected materials, symbols and moods in my jewellery to create and tell stories. I am not afraid of tackling the heavy topics in life, as well as the personal and the funny. I treat all my topics with respect and humour and they, in turn, are influenced by my own experiences and opinions.«
et ça que j’adore !
