These collections are about our ‘Celebration Circle.’ It has been our personal ‘initiation’ into the mystery of creating a jewelry collection that goes beyond what we traditionally think as ‘work of art.’
We intensively research the reasons for creating such a jewelry collections. We even moved our family to a remote village, next to Taman Ayun Temple (recently selected as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO) to live among the local people. We wanted to experience first hand the sacredness of such a creative culture. This process has helped us to better understand the meaning of living and being in ‘illumination.’
We ended up with a collection that went beyond how jewelry is perceived to us! Beyond the deliverables of creative products, we wanted to share ‘ancient fragments’ of wisdom from a culture such as Bali and philosophies of the ancient. In short, we landed through a ‘strengthening’ to a place of ‘knowing,’ hence our collections is called ‘Moments in Expressions.’
We found the root word of ‘jewelry’ leads back to the Latin word ‘jocale,’ meaning plaything; this definitely changed our creative processes. ‘Moment of Expression’ collections hope to influence your expressive moments through contagious enthusiasm. We believe through creative actions of creating your personal adornment; with you as the masterpiece, will affirm your intent for a more dynamic to live and play.
We hope by initiating playful and sagacious meanings via our
jewelry collections, it will create and intensify new expressions for living in celebrations.
The initiation of your celebrations and/or just in your every day living can begin with ‘Moments in Expression.’ We wish to affirm your intentions with inspirational ‘playthings’ for those adorn moments to inspire living each moment as an expressive ‘living art!’
Love and Light,

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.
