OVER THE HUDSON

Some of the new jewelry

Handmade Jewelry

AA: This is my new jewelry collection, inspired by the ocean, wind, and my winter dreams about warm ocean and soothing wind.

I am always in search for the essence that is in-between. The feelings that live deep within every soul. When I stand in front of the ocean, I can feel the connection between myself and the dynamic energies found in the ocean and wind. The beach brings my dreams, my visions, and everything I envision into the world as truths. The wind surrounds me with all the beauty I could wish for. Blue, white, gold , silver... Each color is different and each color brings a different feeling.

Each piece is handmade and unique. All jewelry pieces are made of high fired porcelain, leather, fabrics, silver, feathers, etc.

Lamp Installation

AA: After finding a bunch of black plastic sticks in one of my drawers, I decided to make a little hanging_from_ceiling_lamp_installation in my kitchen. Once I was done, we started playing with the light and shadows, and that's what we got.

R: Reminds me of my favorite El Lissitsky because of the lines and colors (white, black, and red). And well, it's got a bit of Post-Soviet look and feel. Dynamic, though somehow depressing and a little disturbing. (Notice a glass of Vodka on a table! :)

Memories

R: This is my first video edit that I've made after learning Final Cut Pro. It's a combination of videos recorded in California and Hawaii (Spring 2009). The quality is terrible, and it's only 25 seconds long, but I kinda like it :)

Rooftop

AA: This is the ideal setting for those who want to feel closer to nature, while living in the city. And eventhough this summer is almost over, we still have some time to enjoy the rest of sunny days on the rooftop.. (Upper East Side, NY)
