"These pieces centre around the idea of equilibrium, stability, and steadiness in life. The core element is a working spirit level, representing the perpetual strive for balance, both physically and metaphorically. Whether it's work-life balance, emotional equilibrium, or merely the aesthetics, these pieces remind the wearer of the importance of maintaining stability." - Judi Patson
After receiving a BA in Theatre from Brisbane, Australia, Judi Patson returned to Canada to pursue various careers ranging from Professional Laugher to 1st Assistant Director in the film industry until 2001. In 2003, Judi learnt how to work with silver, including pouring, pulling wire, making plates, and solder. Her idea was to create a piece of jewellery using a carpenter’s level as a reminder for her friends to keep themselves balanced. The idea took off right away and the fourth piece that she made was featured on the masthead of the National Post!
