The COFA Annual 2013

Innovation, Experimentation and the Body.

My pieces questions the interactions with technology upon the body to push the traditional boundaries of jewellery and body adornment. The growing prevalence of the quantified self and body architecture means that body centric design can assist with improving the physical and mental wellbeing of humans. In exploring a mixture of traditional and upcoming technologies and materials, my work aims to inform and emotionally connect the user with the design solution such that it leads to an improvement in their lives.
