I discovered an interest in making miniature things a few years ago. I am a visual artist by trade and have been making works of art featuring miniature worlds of all sorts while participating in a number of art fairs and exhibitions. Recently I had the thought that 'hmm, how about a really really small world that one could carry on him or her'. So, I started to explore how I could use my materials and knowledge in creating unique pieces of jewellery.
Some people ask, 'how can you be so patient', or 'what inspires you?' Well for one, what helps immensely is my practice of Falun Gong, a traditional chinese meditation practice, that has greatly benefited me in so many ways. Furthermore, an important aspect of Falun Gong, the three principles of truth, benevolence and forbearance, have made me see art and creativity in a new light, making me want to make things that are more beautiful, bright and positive.
