Inspired by hardware, haute couture, and salvaged materials, emiko oye creates one-of-a-kind urban jewelry and conceptual sculptures from recycled materials and precious metals. Her works strive to subtly transform the identity of everyday mundane objects to create new dialogs about our relationship with the environment. To make people stop for a moment and reflect, question, and per chance take action—jewelry is a quietly seductive vehicle for interaction and expression.
Her work is shown in exhibitions across the United States and in Europe. Recently featured in Lark Book’s Fabulous Jewelry from Found Objects, The Art of Jewelry: Plastic & Resin, and 500 Earrings, as well as published in Metalsmith Magazine, The Crafts Report, and American Craft. |
