Juan Bohorquez and Shannon Kennedy from Cynosure Jewellery Kitchener
Cynosure’s designers, have a shared innovative vision and creative concepts.
The artists want to bring their art expression closer to the people, to their environment, and make them, the people, interact more directly with the artwork, in the visual attachment and the actual physical awareness. These aspects are achieved by implementing such factors as weight, movement, and hidden aspects. Precious metals, stones and even unconventional materials bring their balance of beauty and strength to complement the artist’s vision. They each strive to expand the realm of what is normally considered jewelry. This is represented by the evolution of their current work, which is defined by the necessity of exploring new art techniques and forms of art expression.
