FINE JEWELLERY

 

“THE world is complex, dynamic, multidimensional;  the paper is static, flat. How are we to represent the  rich visual world of experience and measurement  on mere flatland?” – Edward R. Tufte 

Inspired by Edward Tufte’s quote of ‘Escaping Flatland’ We have designed a series of collections that explore this theme in search of its effect on our Arabic letters. From paper we formed sculptures of what the letters would look like if it were set free from paper. Considering  the fragile nature of paper we have transferred the designs  from paper into another material that is long lasting  and wearable. The designs are wearable art forms made from 18k gold  designed to evoke the public to challenge themselves  and, think in multiple dimensions. Through each collection, we see a different story of the letters escape from flatland, yet we leave it to the people  who wear the jewellery to create their own story. In our version of the story we say that the main characters  (the letters) symbolize the United Arab Emirates, a culture  that is urban, daring and multidimensional.
