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 dialogues 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 The Art of Jewelry: Plastic & Resin, 500 Plastic Designs, and Jewellery from Recycled Materials (London), as well as published in Metalsmith Magazine, American Craft, and Readymade Magazine. |
