Degree Show work

Here are some of the photos taken of my final collection The photographer, David Golding was a pleasure to work with and the collaboration was really successful in bringing out the best in the pieces through images.


Kinetic bangle with etched map detail. Silver plated brass but can be commissioned to make in solid silver with etched map that is specified by the wearer. The two central bands spin fluidly when held at the top, and when worn will gently move with the wearer.


Brooch- oxidised copper and white metal. The pin runs through the central tubing of the piece which creates the structure around which the rings are placed. The pin has a cultured pearl on the end. each of the three rings can spin independantly. A geometric brooch when worn, and sculptural and tactileobject when held.

The spinning rings series. Inspired by watch parts, the rings have screw tops and can be layered with a variety of white metal or oxidised copper rings, some set with black diamonds. The bobbins have been a reccurrent theme throughout my degree, in this collection they feature a journey map, describing a significant route I have made throughout my life to visit relatives across the country.
