Before the kinetic rings, before the atelier's current body of work in solid 14k gold, there was a period of custom commissions for stage, television, and editorial — mixed metals, sculptural forms, one-of-one pieces made to be photographed and performed in. The work from that decade taught me how metal behaves under light, how a shape reads from across a room, and how to make something that moves with a body in motion. The vocabulary I developed then — organic texture, articulation, asymmetry — is the vocabulary I work in now.
