About the Jewelry of Sherry Cordova
“Marine Fauna Meets Industrial” reflects Sherry Cordova’s design language, blending technology, aesthetics, and sustainability. Hand-drawn illustrations of microscopic marine creatures are transformed into wearable art via laser cutting and hand finishing. The work highlights the fragility and beauty of marine life and human impact. Species of plankton, important in the marine food chain and global oxygen production, are represented in thin layers of low-tarnish sterling silver and pure titanium. Industrially produced fasteners symbolize human induced changes affecting microscopic marine life. The jewelry embodies Sherry’s fusion of art, precision, and respect for the environment.
