Rachel struggles with today's throw-away society which has inspired her to use materials that would normally be discarded, changing them into objects that become wearable and precious. Polythene is an unexpected material to use for jewellery, it challenges the general perception of the material and what constitutes a jewel. The visual affects of its colour and the contrast when used with other materials is stunning. Texture is also very important to Rachel, her jewellery needs to be handled, squashed and played with.
