The Architact Collective<\/a> are delighted to introduce our\u00a0second collaboration with Sarra Tzijan<\/a>.\u00a0Sarra is a Melbourne based artist with a background in print, drawing and painting. More recently she has begun studies in jewellery design, developing new\u00a0techniques and processes.<\/p>\n

The hand-crafted rings by Sarra are the exploration of surface embellishment and texture, using our natural and built landscapes as a source of inspiration. The design reflects raw elements, natural surroundings and a connection to our immediate environment. Each ring is hand-crafted to ensure it maintains a personal, unique aesthetic.

Together Linda and Sarra\u00a0have created a series of 4\u00a0limited edition sterling silver mountain\u00a0rings. The rings are available via the\u00a0Architact Collective website<\/a> where you can choose your favourite design and ring size before Sarra\u00a0creates\u00a0your ring to order.

To create each ring a wax mould is made of the Original DIY Concrete Mountain Ring<\/a> and then cast in sterling silver. The silver ring is repeatedly filed with various tools to create an even and flat surface. The ring is covered with a resist layer, the design is then cut out from this resist layer. The metal is then placed in an acid solution where the exposed areas will react and slowly begin to degrade the silver, leaving a unique etched surface pattern. The ring is then refined with emery paper until a soft matte finish is produced, creating a contrasting surface to the textured grooves.

Sarra describes her\u00a0work is an expression of her\u00a0conscious connection to all living things, and the simplicity and beauty she\u00a0finds in that relationship. Through her\u00a0incredible drawings Sarra\u00a0portray’s an honest and personal picture of her\u00a0internal thoughts and emotions through other worldly characters and unique interpretations of life and form. Sarra’s\u00a0aim is to create a world that searches for control within chaos.
