Hand-crocheted fine silver (.999) wire stitches enfold on themselves to form the delicate textural ruffles of a hyperbolic plane, punctuated with a single freshwater pearl.
Completed September 2009.

I've been crocheting and making jewelry for years, but just started a jewelry line, Sound Sentiment, on Etsy: soundsentiment.etsy.com
I'm inspired by Ruth Asawa and Demakersvan, who play with scale and materials to make lace sculptures.
