ABOUT
Originally from Ukraine, Valeria Voitushenko now lives in Coquitlam, British Columbia. Since childhood, she has been interested in art. One day she saw an unusual piece of jewelry with very fine workmanship. Her fascination with jewelry grew into a desire to create it herself. At first, it was a hobby, and she would find video tutorials explaining the basics. Finally, the hobby turned into something more - a profession.
ARTIST STATEMENT
I like to turn ordinary copper wire into something interesting and original by weaving semi-precious stones and minerals into it. Each stone is like a talisman in an original setting.
