MANY
How many is one / Ants
Many touches on the concept of individuation. It offers a broad view of the practice of casting in jewelry, relating to excess and error as a fertile and immanent source for the creation of the object. It explores the reciprocity and interrelations between jewelry making as a craft and its industrial manifestations. While industry seeks multiplicity and sameness, these works subversively allow and embrace the contingent, erroneous, and redundant resulting from the casting process. It presents the deconstructed, incidental, and absent facets of the object, thus, paradoxically, germinating a new field of individual objects from the industrial ground.
