About Yuria
Yuria Okamura is a Melbourne-based artist who holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Melbourne. In 2018, Yuria began making jewellery as an extension of her drawing practice. (For her artwork, go to yuriaokamura.com)
Drawing inspiration from Sacred Geometry and talismans from across cultures, Yuria transforms symbolic forms into contemporary wearable objects. Striving for elegant simplicity, she hopes to create timeless jewellery that can bring a hint of ‘magic’ into the everyday life of the modern world.
