“I drill holes because I like to. My jewelry is reminiscent of industrial relics. Thin gauge silver is perforated with tiny holes, creating an organic quality that transforms spare hollow constructions. The density and pattern of the minuscule perforations lend an indeterminable surface to the object.The pieces vibrate, the interior and exterior shift with changing light.” - Sandra Enterline
