Micro-Octahedron Earrings

9ct yellow gold

Emma is fascinated by how things are made and by how they work. Her work often involves the appropriation of basic building forms from history—pyramids, domes—interpreted on a smaller, more personal scale. A continuing fascination with micro-organisms, tessellations, geodesic domes, space travel and the aesthetics of futuristic architecture results in work that adopts wide-eyed science-fiction sensibilities. She explores these elements and interests in contemporary jewellery, finding ways to reconcile and marry the aesthetic worlds of the organic and the industrial.
