Producing Installation Art projects from concept to exhibition. Adept at developing a storyline and translating it into a visual metaphor. Skilled at introducing disruptive elements into a tableau, using performance and/or the juxtaposition of contrary elements to create an immersive, interactive mise-en-scène.

Installation art enables Seggos to utilize various media while challenging her to maintain consistency in her work under one concept. She focuses on incorporating variations of sculpture, assemblage, mixed media, performance, painting, photography, wordplay, found objects, Olfactory Art, Post-Internet and Digital Art, and Body Adornment to tell a story within the tableau. This allows her to experience her artistic process to the fullest, while pushing the boundaries of her creativity to the limit.

Seggos' work is self as well as culturally reflective in an emotionally responsive and experiential way, dealing with issues of process, space and time, environment, memories, transformation, automediality and relationship.
BODY ADORNMENT
Seggos' jewelry designs are sculpture as body adornment. She mixes materials to create stories for each design, with minimal polishing, leaving the pieces in as raw a form as possible to convey emotions.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Jewelry is an extremely powerful, intimate form of artistic expression. As the artist, the jewelry I create is imbued with the expressions of my emotions, thoughts and feelings. In my work, equal consideration is given to the wearer and the beholder.
The power of jewelry as a medium of art lies not only in its form and function, its relationship to the body, and unique possibilities for display, but also in its multiple layers of transference. In effect, jewelry becomes a transmutation of emotional experience from the artist, to the wearer, to the beholder.
-
my works are explorations. self-portraits. expressive of personal transformation and my inner spirit, fears, dreams and passions. they are metaphors for my life and my relationship to nature, beauty and the universe. my emotions, thoughts and feelings are transmuted through my work, which manifests a deeper, more heartfelt, level of consciousness.
it is alchemy.
the intention: an invocation of sensory response, preferably intense and profound
