By invitation Jess attended the 2017 ” Artisan Jewels” Palazzo Giureconsulti di Milano, Italy 23-26 Feb during Fashion week. The concept for this body of work comes from my interest in how everyones reality is informed by their experiences. We all see life differently. I often express this through the way I pair materials. Organic natural materials against hard architectural forms. Jessica Winchcombe 2017 |
