I Created Colorful Beadwork Jewelry With Sharp And Rough Parts

Color is the most important element which requires maximum reflection and which also combines my jewelry. Color does not lose its relevancy in this collection too, but new component such as relief appears. I chose sharp and rough (stone, coral, quartz) parts and started to create the range of solid jewelry.

Collection began to balance between soft and hard surfaces and also between rough lines and soft tones. Contrast appears as a result between the feminine and non-feminine concept and between contemporary and historical icon of the woman.

The second stage was work with photographer Elvina Janušonyte who has the task to combine the feminine softness with the rough ornament of jewelry and to create the impression of ambivalent photography submitted through the image of a contemporary woman. Photographer depicts a sensitive and artistic human existence with painful and brutal charm of melancholy. You can feel the duality in the pictures. Breathing of clean and quiet illusion intertwines through painful and sometimes dull glance of a woman, and also indifference intertwines with sexuality.

Boredom and sadness, tenderness and romanticism, which prevails in the pictures, oppose the rashness, the masculinity, the woman’s status and the existential boredom. Rough surfaces of jewelry, sharp angles and tones of colours contrast with the gentle model of a woman. The confrontation of strong and courageous jewelry for sensitive woman`s body illustrates her contemporary position in the society.
