HAVA
Heather
Thompson, creator of Hava, began making
jewellery during her travels through South
Africa. Surrounded by a sea of beautiful
beads she began to see earrings in everything;
long grasses, exotic bird feathers quills
and even hut thatching. Upon her return
to Canada she worked steadily refining her
skills to bridge the inspiration of natural
splendour with the fantasy of gloss and
polish. This working process has come to
climax in a line of ear and neck pieces
as diverse as the resources tapped to make
them; resin, leather, wire, glass, feather,
flower and paper. Her work is elegant yet
earthy. There is a piece in her collection
for women from all walks of life.
