The design on these earrings is like an x-ray, the colour comes through the leaves showing every detail of the leaf. It is made using my own method of dying and embossing plastic which I call fossilized plastic due to the fine detail which it is possible to capture on the embossed surface so they are similar to fossils.
For the subject I choose quite ordinary plants and weeds, as well as textiles . I hope that the wearer will not only enjoy them as jewellery but also review their appreciation of the natural world.I set out to create a marriage between the industrial and the organic. I want to create a feeling of celebration between material and subject.
