The bracelet began as an enlarged hand drawing of a microscopic creature. Mentally deconstructing the zooplankton during the hand drawing phase, I morphed the creatures into flat layers which would rebuild as a 3D form. I used CAD software to ingest the layer drawings and further modify the designs of each layer. Individual vector files were sent to a laser cutter. Each rough-cut low tarnish sterling silver layer was hand textured and finished in the hundreds of uniquely shaped cut outs.
