Andi Velgos

Andi Velgos’ work is greatly inspired by organic forms and natural growth processes. Her collection titled “Human | Nature” focuses on the organisms that grow within natural habitats, and explores the “delicate balance between the beautiful and grotesque” within natural forms. Her other works also resonate with a dark, forest-grown atmosphere, with the use of both precious and non precious materials and nature inspired patterns. Her practice stems from her interest in finding harmony between the natural and man-made.

PS. if you're wondering why the text is so formal it's because I've written this for a proposal for my next jewellery project, and this artist is one I've included as someone who is doing something similar to what I'm going for.
