dc.description.abstractNon+Precious, a Master of Fine Arts thesis exhibition, consists of five tables with assorted sets of jewelry arranged on the top and a suspended necklace centered above each. The sets of jewelry contain rings, bracelets, and brooches. My work can be classified as wearable art and an expression of fashion using a wide range of materials including paper, felt, acrylic, and composition gold leaf. My goal was to create an intriguing balance of precious and non-precious materials as well as formal and casual elegance. Everyday materials become anonymous and lose their identities in my work. I break down perceived ideas of what is precious and non-precious jewelry, suggesting to viewers that established hierarchies no longer exist.
