Liza Belachew ("LB") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work The share collection Earrings. Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
LB : My design is mostly inspired by my family culture, graphic experience, and context of art, fashion...etc.
LB : It is to express myself based on my identity and the way of my associating with society.
LB : This style is going to be more evolved in the next phase and I want to make it even more established.
LB : Speaking practically, it took about 3 months. but in fact it took more time to reach this concept and style, including the feasibility study.
LB : Because I wanted to break some sort of existing frame to jewelry and to make it more innovative with obvious message. This style is the result that I decided to pursuit an inspiration.
LB : My design is for my own jewelry brand and my company will sell them through online, www.lizabelachew.com
LB : It might be my strong desire to creativity and originality.
LB : Principally it is my families art work. And art, architecture, and current fashion trends.
LB : Fashion and art lovers.
LB : At least I don't think there is any other similar concepts in the world.
LB : The Share collection is inspired by the idea to share, or to be connected with others through these jewelry pieces.
LB : I used visual drawing software.
LB : Fragmented jewelry pieces, combined one another and as a result they becomes a single motif such as geometry or heart. some people even don’t recognize that it is a collectiveness, composed of eight studs earrings at the first sight because they looks a perfect single motif. I love to see their reaction of when they know the secret.
LB : I collaborated with Japanese craftsmen who have amazing skilled and very careful job.
LB : Most importantly, it is their perfect polish to gold surface. Because it is not impossible for the studs to be connected one another without a careful polish.
LB : I interviewed some fashion or creative people about the design and price range. And also I researched a lot about other brands in order to avoid duplication of design.
LB : It was to brush up my concept and make even more simple and meaningful message.
LB : I wanted people in the world to know share this great concept.
LB : I had been an art director of fashion magazine for a long time, and I always think about what kind of style attracts people or what kind of topic they like. But through this work experience, I wanted and think more about myself, such as who I was, what I have done in my life, who I am, what I want to do, or what I should do...etc.
