JEANINE VAN DER LINDE

Emerging Talent / Netherland

Born and bred on the shores of the North Sea, I always gravitated towards the sea. With a camera and a bag, I would stroll along the coast. More and more frequently, I began stumbling on plastic waste while beachcombing. The photos and the beach finds became an inspiration, and I was able to use some of these materials in my work.

The collection Turning Tides is about awakening awareness of this pollution. Wearing jewellery can play an innovative role in this process as a means of communication. My wish is to raise awareness about the perils of plastic pollution and to cherish the beauty of unspoilt nature. Our environment is vulnerable and susceptible to change from adverse human intervention.

We are changing our world with this increasing tide of plastic, filling our oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, canals and ditches, plasticizing nature. Whilst my designs may not change the world, I hope they can lead the onlooker to an awareness and inspiration to protect our world.
