Description: |
Usually I like to visualize a piece in my mind first and
then create it, but this necklace design was born of
synchronicity.
Synchronicity is a concept which
holds that events are
meaningful coincidences
if they occur with no causal relationship, yet seem to be
meaningfully related.
Playing with an 18mm rivoli, the only idea I had in mind as
I began was to make something modern. I did not have any
specific form ready to translate in beads. Over time I made
different parts and pieces here and there while also working
on other projects. The necklace began to spontaneously come
together one day when I saw the meaningful design
connections between the various parts and pieces.
Engineered using
Pinch-in-the-Ditch for construction and strength, the center
rivoli pendant is an especially significant element as it
has no visible external structure. Together with the rivoli
pendant, the weight of the Rollo chain balances the beaded
rings and sculptural netting segments in perfect
synchronicity. There are two ways of connecting the chain
for a completely different look.
