Contemporary African Jewelry

Contemporary tribal jewelry

This might sound like an oxymoron so let's label it 'Fusion'? 

 I enjoy making this blend hoping to achieve an harmonious interaction between tradition and modernity.

Picasso has always been one of my favourite artist, I enjoy his use of geometric shapes juxtaposed with traditional African motifs. I use mainly natural materials wood , shells, stones, leather and often use textiles and fibers. I recently came across broken vintage Moroccan tiles which I think make an interesting addition.

The necklaces and bracelets are chunky with asymetrical patterns and an artistic  avant-garde edge.
