The Askill Brethren is blessed with explicit creative artistic skill, encompassing all facets of design and its production whereby film-making, installation, motion-image, visual graphics and jewellery are all grasped with inherent ease. The trio of brothers Lorin, Daniel and Jordan and the latter in particular has gained both praise and a stature well beyond his youthful years. Many will have noted for his work at Dior Homme spending three years alongside Hedi Slimane, a cult figure who remains at the pinnacle of his previous Dior Homme helm. Crucially, it has become the infinite and forging of silversmithing that makes his reportoire both visually and viscerally compelling.

Whilst his jewelled and sculptured personalised objects have encapsulated a nexus between nature and the human body, Jordan is careful to elucidate an artisanal silversmithing approach whilst retaining a contemporary energy. His pieces have ranged from a crystallised boy’s head to a fossilized bird in gold and his secondary line named ‘Jordy’ as keepsakes in special heart shaped rings. His forway of skills also has encompassed sculpture having so far created a stallion armada and a solider milieu revealing a tapestry of pre-occuring events.

As a result of his accomplishments so far, he is currently stocked through Dover Street Market in London, Rick Owens in Paris, Land’s End in Sydney and Liberty’s in London. In July of this year, Jordan became a NewGen award recipient by the British Fashion Council enabling him to showcase his own small exhibition later in September when London Fashion Week takes place for Spring 2011.
