Cool Hunting
Zelle by Evan Orensten
Liz McLean Knight's work literally represents the integration of art, technology and design. A Chicago-based computer science major who developed an interest in art, went to art school, became a jewelry designer, musician, publisher and record label exec along the way.
Her jewelry features intricate geometric designs made with capacitors, transitors, cables, plugs and diodes. It's both graceful and geek chic.
Zelle jewelry, bags and accessories are modestly priced and available at Fractal Spin and other stores/sites.
