Artist list

Katrhyn Partington
Kathryn produces one-off wearable items of jewellery by utilising her background training within the discipline of tableware ceramics & printed textiles. By combining these skills the application of surface pattern & ornamentation is explored by using a diverse range of processes and material manipulation. This leads to a juxtaposition of simple to complex compositions by placement & layering to form pieces that can be considered as not just items of jewellery but pieces of art within their own right.

Works include the combination of natural and hand dyed screen-printed silks, hand engraved slip cast bone china, decorative applications of pattern to silver and metals in unconventional ways. This enables the creation of jewellery pieces that are extremely unique within the arena
of contemporary jewellery, craft & fashion.
