A lot has happened with my work in the past few weeks. I have started a second job at Suneri, doing blogging, photography, online e-commerce listings, and general marketing implemetation help with them. I work full days Mondays and evenings on Wed and Thurs, or a few hours on the weekend. It is nice that it is a small business, so I get a good amount of creative freedom that I probably would not be given if, say, I worked for the Gap. The photographs below are some snapshots that I took of a few pieces that arrived in the store last week. Such a beautiful conglomeration of urban / industrial pieces, such as rubber, pewter, and glass, put together to make a unique piece of wearable art. All of them are by Anne Marie Chagnon.
A bit of what I have written about the artist for Suneri: From chunky bracelets to industrial-modern neck pieces, all pieces are created with a mixed-media approach allows the artist to "shape materials instinctively while achieving a playful harmony of form." Anne Marie Chagnon is a graduate of visual arts from the University of Quebec in Montreal, and started her own company in 1995. She is known for wearable works of art that "playfully push boundaries and showcase familiar materials in an all new way." In 2003, she partnered with Cirque du Soleil to create a special collection for their Dralion show, and has created an exclusive collection for Cirque du Soleil every year since. She favors raw materials in unconventional combinations, including materials such as pewter, wood, resin, gold, and glass.
Today is the my first day of classes at Berklee....more on that later!
