Fine jewlery inspired by the motion of the ocean.
Background
Aether explores the invisible geometries that connect sound, form, and spirit. Inspired by the conch, sacred across Southeast Asian cultures as a symbol of awakening and calmness.
This collection reinterprets its spiral form through metal and light. Referencing The Geometry of Art and Life, each piece reflects balance and proportion as a living language. The result is a series of jewelry pieces that reflect vibration, flow, and the unseen forces that shape our world.
Aether: The fifth element, or the personification of the bright upper sky in Greek mythology.

Form Exploration
These initial sketches expand on a collection I developed during my undergrad, where I explored the tension and harmony within feminine identity. How there is a continual negotiation between softness and strength, concealment and expression.
In revisiting these ideas through jewelry, I was drawn to forms of transformation and spiral motion as visual metaphors for change and self-reflection. The lines echo how identity shifts in response to our environments, capturing the fluid dialogue between our inner and outer worlds.
