Perceptions attached to Jewellery 

I choose Alexis Kirk, his work is in addition to spiritual, occult and ethnic influences, he used materials such as exotic woods, pewter and plastic alongside more traditional metals. Kirk's work was always designed on a large scale, the designer favored sculptural designs in striking shapes, bold and materials which made a statement (over sized jewellery gets favor).

Contemporary jewellery

The challenges are that this brooch is lighter, less metal use and it made out of silver only. Alexis Kirk thinks that jewellery such be bold and make a statement, so his challenging that jewellery can be large and use different materials and still be worn. I choose Alexis Kirk, because I enjoy looking at big bold jewellery and it makes a piece look expensive.

Final piece

I found this project very interesting, because I wasn't sure about what I'm
going to come up with and manufacture and it turned out to be enjoyable,
 it really pushed me to be better,believing in myself and work harder. 

Pendant
made out of sterling sliver and
 it been blacked .

Texture made with shweshwe fabric,
 rolled through the roller.

 Design development process 

Finding interesting shapes from my reference and playing around
 with overlapping, repeating elements  

Trying to come up with a more detailed and overlapped more element
 to find a form to work with for the final piece. 

Decided to work with this element.

Fingering out my elements using paper
 and how to manufacture it.

Practicing how to fold metal. 

CIRCUS INSPIRED 

I choose body painting, because of how interesting is the forms and shape the body can create and the patterns that forms movement, this picture show the elements and principals of design such as lines, contract, movement, form and unity that what made me interested.

My Greebles final piece

The neck piece helps Bubble heart to control the powers, not to over power her when 

she's connecting to someones thoughts and heart. I decided to use the Shweshwe fabric to give my piece a traditional feel, because she got the gift from her Ancestors.
