Amy J Studio’s new website is up

So, my long-time friend Amy Johnston has a new site up for her art jewelry and design work over at Amy J Studio. She does really great work, and I helped by designing the site.

This is from her bio, which gives you an idea of what she’s about:

If your identity is stolen, who are you? How does cloning affect our sense of self? What’s the difference between real and virtual friendship? I use historical jewelry models to create jewelry addressing these questions, exploring how recent technological and scientific advancements affect contemporary identity. I cast and fabricate fine art jewelry from sterling silver, resin, and stones.

Some of her stuff focused on using RFID in the design, as an exploration of the topic of technology and identity … Pretty interesting stuff! And, be sure to check out the Robot Army items.
