Contemporary jewellery designer maker, Graduating from a jewellery and silversmithing degree. I like to use my jewellery as a narrative; a different way of presenting a process of change, my inspiration for this comes from the observation of natural scenes and objects as they grow or decay. My jewellery encompasses innovative ways of setting stones like my recent collection of blue Lapis stones and gold leaf, in which the stones are set by tension and folds in the metal. The final design of my pieces, are original and descriptive; they can not only be worn, but can be displayed as a piece of art in their own right.

Work of art I would like to make

If chosen as one of the 4 New Sensations then I would like to make a piece of jewellery that represents my interpretation of how the world could look at this point in time if we keep consuming as much as we do at the moment. I am imagining a mass of debris and rubble and hidden beneath it all are the remains of precious objects belonging to the people who once walked here. So my piece would consist of preciuos metal which has been cast into a decayed/non-precious looking form with glistening stones pertruding through small gaps in the piece (the stones being the remains of the life before it).

P.S I have only found out about this competition about an hour ago so havn't been able to upload all my images. Hope this is enough for you to go on Thank You Laurie
