‘. . as i ponder thePresence withIN abstracted exercises
& distinctive figurative explorations - i realize,
anatomical understanding for me is clarity & authenticity of existence -
awareness withIN understanding of the beauty IN every human,
their purpose in time & space,
& the abstraction ‘withIN’ - one word with many implications as to suggest the unexplainable or making no sense
yet somehow quite pleasing to the eye or aesthetic_an attraction to some-thing that is AWE inspiring -
for me, simplicity in the tools i engage & the mediums applied are paramount in my journey withIN each piece,

Metal can be hard and unrelenting, yet with fire, it becomes malleable and transformative. The journey the metal takes through multiple processes, intrigues me. Working with recyclable and scrap items often finds a presence in my practice. I enjoy working in the moment, letting intuition lead, using a number of different mediums and experimenting in color and texture, letting the materials guide me in the creative process. The ability to choose any material to create a piece of art that someone could wear is a huge invitation to a big world of possibilities.
I find that it is important to me that things are not thrown out, especially if I can give it a new place to live. Rocks, wood, tiles, broken vintage jewelry have all found a way into my art. My inquisitive need to see “what if” gives me a no boundaries approach to my art. Allowing the materials to direct the steps to the final piece is my favorite way to work. The desire not to limit what materials or processes are part of my practice, allows me to push into new areas of work, while letting the materials talk to me as I create.
My continued investigation of different forms of casting with crystals and stones in place provides an exciting direction for me to experiment with materials and processes. The anticipation of seeing the final piece and how wonderfully it survived the heat of casting is almost addicting. Working in larger scale for my work is part of the plan for this journey of manipulating metal.

Regina Pericini
Regina Pericini's latest design venture is Flock Home, line of home decor and linen tabletop accessories as well as children toys and clothes features hand-printed and eco-friendly cotton dinner napkin sets, and tea towels. Nearly 20 years after cutting her first pattern, she continues to be inspired by vintage textiles and illustrations.
"I love studying natural history," notes the chic, outdoor-loving designer, whose clothing and millinery lines as well as home and baby goods have been covered by Design Sponge, Instyle magazine, Martha Stewarts Whole Living, 7x7 Magazine, the San Francisco Bay Guardian newspaper, the East Bay Express newspaper, and fashion bible Women's Wear Daily. "I draw visual cues from vintage textiles, turn-of-the-century renderings, 1970s prints, and modern line drawings," she continues, "But a simple trip to a favorite spot in nature can be hugely inspirational, too."

I studied art throughout my childhood and I made my first piece of jewelry when I was in high school. I was hooked. The concepts came easily to me and I showed an aptitude for metal work. For years after, I wished for a career that could be as fulfilling as my jewelry-making hobby. I began to enroll in more serious jewelry making workshops and classes. Then, in 2003 after moving back to my hometown of Kalamazoo, I fulfilled that wish and became a jeweler full time.
