The unifying theme within the Metals and Jewellery Studio is the handcrafting of objects closely associated with the human body, physically or symbolically. This process includes jewellery, tableware and other small-scale objects crafted from metals, wood, plastics and other materials. In the Studio students are encouraged to challenge generally accepted concerns for the body, for status and sentiment, and to produce work which questions the understanding of what jewellery entails.
Experimentations with form, materials and processes, image making, and connections with the body form a basis for carefully considered and constructed objects which become small vehicles for personal expression and perhaps even suggest new ways of understanding who we are as human beings.
