How lovely the little river is, with its dark changing wavelets! It seems to me like a living companion while I wander along the bank, and listen to its low, placid voice . . .

“Sound Locket
A ribbon of sounds contained in a necklace made from cassette tape, steel, and silk. Each pendant holds a song on a tightly wound cassette tape that was made especially for this project by soundmakers from around the world. The hand-dyed silk cord is adjustable in length and is color specific to each song. The unisex necklace comes packaged in a soft pouch within a larger box that includes a CD of all 5 tracks created for this collaboration. The CD design is also a collective effort, with each musician contributing a ring of their own artwork. Listen to samples of each track to find your favorite, or collect them all.”

… help me to believe the truth about myself, No matter how beautiful it is!

ALTERNATIVES contemporary jewellery – Constantinos Kyriacou.

  

 

“Constantinos Kyriacou considers his work continuous inner research. He prefers to communicate his emotions and thoughts through his pieces rather than by using words to explain them. Some of the driving forces in Kyriacou’s work are different states of mind, the co-existence of opposites and contradictions. These are all elements in which he finds inspiration. He tries to keep a balance and moves on a fine line when expressing himself through his work. Kyriacou’s latest group of creations is entitled Red. He states that he was induced to create this collection, not through passion itself, as it may seem, nor through its absence, but its existence as inner “in-formation” struggling to be translated. Expression in pure form is the beginning of a circle, no matter what the subject is, or the way something is conveyed. Subsequently when pushed by external factors, the expressed becomes veiled, and ultimately passes to invisibility, at which point it has to be detached again from any limitation. That is the transitional point where expression of passion urges to be exposed. And that is the point on which the RED collection is focused.” -Alternatives”

Let the lover be disgraceful, crazy, absentminded. / Someone sober will worry about things going badly. / Let the lover be.

“It crafts the poetic space around body as describing soft tangible silouette as becoming more tangled and meshed space around body through the beautiful movement of body wrapped thread.” K. Kim
