Artist Statement - Kayle Bowes

Experimental, sterling silver succulent casting

The focus of my jewellery pieces is drawing inspiration from nature and incorporating them into my organic contemporary jewellery designs. I have been exploring casting and enamelling to replicate forms and colours found in nature. I have always been interested in the biology of how things work in nature and I have been filtering some patterns of plant's biology into some of my work. My experiments with different techniques were the start of my journey in finding the type of jewellery I want to make in the future.
