Monumental structures are interpreted into the intimate scale of jewelry and are completed when worn on the landscape of the body. Cole focuses on her environmental surroundings to draw up inspiration in order to create pieces of jewelry that depict urban settings. Many of her jewelry pieces are reminiscent of tin-based objects.
