C’est rond, ça s’enroule, ça claque (de couleurs, de joie de vivre …) …. comme les lassos de son Texas ?
Rachelle Thiewes‘ recent work explores kinetic shapes that are made of steel and painted with those color-shifting paints used in the auto industry. These vibrant pieces contrast greatly to her former work, which was more subtle in comparison, although still quite kinetic. Rachelle has always been a colorist, so it makes sense that her work reflects her affinity for dynamic, bold and unabashed hues. The collection consists of earrings, bracelets and brooches, and they all « jump » off the wearer while still being physically attached to that wearer.
