Eoin M Lyons
Eoin M Lyons makes original jewellery inspired by mechanical objects, science fiction, space and dimensions, the intangible and the unknown. His work seeks to explore the world and our own existence through science fiction and the slightly more obscure theories of science and physics.
He uses iron wire combined with gold and silver to create intricate jewellery pieces. While some pieces may be an exploration in to multi-dimensions and the theory of hyperspace, others are inspired by ideas of quantum theory, chaos theory and self-similarity. He is drawn to the visual potential of these ideas, imagining the movement of extra dimensions as they curl around us unperceived of the gargantuan beauty that must reside at the centre of a black hole or single entity.
Lyons graduated from the National College of Art and Design, Dublin in 2009 with the Bachelor of Design in Craft Design. He currently lives and works in Dublin.
