SUBSTANTIA #2

This collection was created with the idea of treating 3D printed media as a limited resource, similar to natural stones and minerals. I was excited by the possibility of using digital tools to create a new material which can then be worked with in a traditional way. Each piece in the collection is hand-carved from this newly conceived substance, created in virtual reality and then printed using 3D technology. The material mimics organic structures, with variations in texture and density throughout the mass. The series includes a ring, a pair of earrings and a brooch. Each piece is initially created from the same block, then cast in silver or aluminium. The aluminium offers lightness, and these pieces are finished with a black satin powder coating that highlights the unusual structure of the material.

Complimentary worldwide shipping. Each piece is made or finished in Switzerland. Taxes and duties are calculated at checkout.
