Acrylic Exploration
Acrylic offers things metal can't: transparency, striking neon or frosted colors, and the ability to encapsulate objects. If your work deals with complex themes—like the overwhelming flow of information or layered visual distortions—the clear, glass-like, or reflective qualities of acrylic play directly into those concepts.
Acrylic Fold-Setting
"By introducing heat, acrylic transcends its inherent rigidity, achieving a malleability akin to precious metals. Through a meticulous cycle of continuous heating and reshaping, the material is coaxed into its ideal form. This precise thermal deformation is then harnessed to securely encapsulate the gemstone, creating a flawless, organic setting born entirely from the material's own shift in state."
