This show is inspired by Lauren VanArman’s love of the amazing architectural structures found in nature. Growing up with two biologist parents has influenced her art and encouraged an expression of nature using a variety of wire jewelry and beading methods. Her background in architectural and mechanical drafting provides a way to plan and execute intricate insect structures in 3D forms. By integrating her understanding of their balanced proportions and colors with jewelry techniques she aims to add aesthetic value and draw awareness to the beauty of this part of the animal kingdom.
