TINE DE RUYSSER
I make both jewellery and folded objects.
My jewellery collections are mostly conceptual. They tell a little story, often based on the theme of a group-exhibition that they have been created for.
The folded objects are all about shape, they are three-dimensional structures through folding. The designs are based on natural and mathematical patterns. The interaction of intricate folding patterns and the texture of fabric results in objects that are both geometrical and poetic.
Presently I am taking a research degree at the Royal College of Art in London, developing a material that combines the appearance of metal with the flexibility of textile. When this material is ready for production, it will bring together my jewellery and folding design.
