SORIYA WARREN 74
JEWELLERY AND SMALL OBJECTS Bamboo and Rice Ring 2015 sterling silver, resin, bamboo, and rice 2 x 3cm
My jewellery portrays a personal journey exploring cultural identity and heritage. The fragments of materials embedded in resin and silver capture the fascinating transformation of simple organic matter into fragile and precious pieces of beauty and adornment, each bearing significant cultural meaning. While the fragments symbolise disconnection with my cultural heritage, the circles reflect notions of connection and completeness. Each piece expresses individual identity and contrast, yet displays a tangible sense of unity and harmony.
