"They play on the notion of what we're actually looking at. Loupe is kind of a pun. A loupe is a tool used by jewelers to magnify items, and tools allow us to access interiors and ), see other worlds. Cooperman likes to use old tools in forming his jewelry because it gives him a sense of connection to craftsmen of the past. One hammer in his studio, for example, is dated Oct. 2, 1904. "I use old tools when I teach how to set up a studio," Cooperman says "While I can find older tools at lower costs, I really love the continuity, the idea that somebody else used them on a day-to-day basis." Cooperman, whose work has been part of an earlier exhibit at Sybaris, studied marine biology and medical illustration before switching to painting and literature at Oneonta in New York, where he also discovered his interest in jewelry. As his career progressed, he made sure that every mark was intentional and contributed to what he wanted to convey. Everything is finished — the backs, ends and even the rivets. "Metal's in our blood," says Cooperman, who gives his jewelry a textured, rough- hewn look . "It's got to do with us. We've named time periods after metals that helped forge early civiliza- tions, like the Bronze Age." LI The works of Ferne Jacobs and Andrew Cooperman will be shown through Dec. 4 at the Sybaris Gallery, 202 E. Third Street, Royal Oak. (248) 544-3388.
