These statement earrings were created for the Association of Contemporary jewellery exhibition, Duality.
Did you know that the Technosphere—the total weight of everything humans have made, from buildings to plastic waste— now outweighs the biosphere, the entirety of life on Earth?
I imagine this as a new layer of fossils pressing into the earth’s crust—a geology of human creation. What will future generations think of this stratum of waste? What stories will it tell about us?
The stones I create, heat-pressed from repurposed acrylic waste, are my small answer to this question. Like sedimentary rock, their layered forms reveal their past lives, transformed into something precious. They are fragments of the Technosphere reimagined—a material language that speaks of duality: waste and beauty, permanence and fragility, destruction and creation.
Through jewellery, these stories become wearable, sparking quiet conversations between the wearer and the world. It’s a small act of care, a way to honour what we leave behind, and a step toward rethinking the future.
