Hi guys. Its been a while since ive done this so i hope i havent lost all of my followers. Ive been super busy making new work and ive just started a temporary job at DUT where i studied. Its the position as the workshop technician, so im pretty much running the jewellery workshop until a replacement can be found for the old technician. So far it seems to be quite a cool job. Im doing the things in the workshop that ive wanted to do for a long time, only now they paying me for it.
Im still making my own stuff in my spare time and have been invited to be in an upcoming exhibition.
I came up with these bangles just before i went to Design Indaba in Cape Town. They are made from Flexible Computer Keyboards and have had a great response. At the moment i am making a number of them to sell in shops in Cape Town, so until i find a place in Durban, thats where theyll be.
I had this great idea while talking to some designed friends of mine, Zane and Rachel, to make a handbag from one of the keyboards. Well after some experimenting with eyelets, i got it right. Ive had some serious reactions from this, so lets hope i can sell them now.
