• Living in Alabama, working as a bicycle messenger and my father’s Meccano and Airfix model kits

  The nostalgic aesthetic of the Southern States of America combined with my practical interest in bicycles, mechanical objects, industrial materials and processes, form the basis of this collection of interactive jewellery kits and bicycle-related products.
