About JIL KOEHN

I am a self-employed designer working in the field of tension between art jewelry and jewelry design. When creating, my goal is to surpass rational thinking and viewing behaviors that limit interpretations of reality by designing pieces that transform perception. I see design as a purposeful process that can improve our life and therefore the world. Form me, design actually is the evidence that we can shape the world with our thoughts.
