Dreams By Machine
Re-purposed and Functional Art

Jewelry and accessories gallery
ONLY THE BRAVE DESERVE THE FAIR.
These items are not meant for the faint of heart.I love creating new, lasting works of art from scrap, salvage and overlooked beauty. My inspiration revels in finding new forms for the under-appreciated.
I am appalled by the waste in my industry. (In the rest of life, I’m a longtime costume designer and maker for the entertainment industry. You’d be shocked at the waste too.)
Who has time to be dispassionate and uninvolved- in life, in work and in love?This truly eco-friendly art has a sensual flair with a strong geek twist. It is made of at least 90% re-purposed and re-used materials (well cleaned and prepared) and is meant to be worn often. Even aggressively. With more than a hint of whimsy.
