Artist Statement

The Little Merle is where forgotten objects find new life. Each one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry is made from recycled materials—vintage jewelry, toy parts, hardware, and other unexpected treasures—transformed into small wearable sculptures. Inspired by color, texture, and patina, I create with intuition, letting the right pieces come together when they’re ready.

What began as a lifelong habit of collecting overlooked items has evolved into a practice rooted in creativity and sustainability.

At its heart, The Little Merle is about connection—between materials, people, and stories—and about honoring the beauty of the unexpected.

Artist Bio

When I created The Little Merle, everything clicked into place in my creative process. Having an ever-changing variety of materials keeps me in a constant state of new creation and helps fulfil my desire to create a smaller footprint in this world.
