Seizure
Marrying different organic shapes to create hybrid organisms, Eily O’Connell uses her jewelry to make a statement about man’s complicity in the many crises affecting the environment. A piece of wood morphs into a claw grasping a polished stone, a tooth lies embedded in a twist of wood. Here work mirrors nature gone awry while still catering to the human predilection for adornment. Check out more of her work at http://www.risecreatives.ie/eilyoconnell.
I wouldn’t pick that ring as a wedding ring, but I like it.
