BLACK AS NIGHT is a geometric reimagining of pinwheel galaxies found in the furthest reaches of space, where paradoxically, black overflows with light, matter, birth and collapse. On a clear night, these galaxies speckle the sky, visible to the naked eye. But will this always be the case? As stars burn out and the sky becomes increasingly filled with satellites, will we one day gaze upward only to find blackness or a twinkly mimicry of what once was?

This series explores the material potential of black through mild steel, a humble and accessible material often overlooked in jewellery, alongside sterling silver. By combining blackening techniques, I investigate how surfaces can be altered to produce different depths and effects.

This body of work considers black not only as a colour but as an active agent capable of conveying narrative, evoking the cosmic vastness of unknown futures.
