Neytiri's - 2015

Neytiri's was made after I (finally) saw the film Avatar by James Cameron. It is the attire I can imagine her wearing for her wedding with Jack. Just like in the film, the flowers can open and close, thanks to the petals I designed to obtain this effect. Neytiri's won a gold medal in the Firemountain Gems and Beads beading contest in the category Bib and Collar style in 2016.

Techniques: Dimensional peyote, Diamond Weave
