BUISNESS DESCRIPTION:
MoriAndi is a new creative jewelry design company, lead by wearable-art pioneer Andi Harriman, which is as varied as its customers, ranging from unique fashion jewelry to avant-garde pieces.

BRAND STATEMENT:
Ars Moriendi, or The Art of Dying, is a body of literature that provides opinion on how to die with dignity; whether it be to travel to heaven or hell, to one realm of the unknown or the other. The dying illustrated in the Ars Moriendi text encounters angels and devils, priests and skeletons, all who represent the beyond -- a nightmare or dream of what death can be depending on the outcome. It is up to the individual to decide the path to take, the discover a graceful and worthy means of departure. Fall 2012 /FASH 763/ Prof. Jinah Oh/ Elise & Andi
BRAND STATEMENT:
MoriAndi provides incentive to those not satisfied with conventions -- those who decidedly prefer to bridge the line between heaven and hell, who take risks in order to fulfill their lives by standing out among the angels and demons in the journey of life. The MoriAndi customer adorns her body the way she chooses her own path -unconventionally and without reservation, much like the art of dying.
