RUTH ALLEN<br />
Matrix – definition.<br />
‘the cultural, social, or political environment in which something develops.’<br />
The Matrix jewellery works are mostly created in the small hours of the night, in the<br />
quiet and under the blanket of darkness. The night beholds the most contemplative<br />
hours of my daily clock. I weave threads whilst travelling along complicated roads of<br />
thought. Perplexed by how to change our current global trajectory whilst upholding<br />
my belief in the power of humanity and community to change our priorities and the<br />
way we exist.<br />
The Matrix jewellery series is the natural evolution to previous work titled<br />
‘Synergetic Series’. The Synergetic sculptures are derived from the study of natural<br />
systems and influenced by the philosophies and design science of the most notable<br />
American, Buck Minster-Fuller.<br />
