Artist Statement: This striking ring features a bold dome design, with a vibrant green powder coating overlaying a carved wood set with sparkling crystals. The piece blends organic, floral-inspired shapes, creating a harmonious balance between playfulness and elegance. Its craftsmanship and bold color make it a standout statement accessory.
Technical Process Info: I fabricated everything and riveted the wood into place.
Artist Bio: My metalsmithing and jewelry work explores the dialogue between cultural rhythms and natural patterns, drawing from my Ghanaian heritage and American experiences. I weave together inspirations from nature's fluid expressions, wood grain, water movement, and sand patterns, creating pieces that reflect contrasting approaches to time. Working with wood, metals, and gemstones, I transform these natural phenomena into permanent adornments that bridge mechanical precision with organic flow.
