Daniel Jocz

Beginning his career as a sculptor in the mid 1960s, Daniel Jocz turned to jewelry-making in earnest in the early 1980s. He had never studied metalworking before this shift; instead he learned through trial and error. His inventive work has shown his ability to make jewelry look like less like decoration and more like sculpture.
