A celebration of the regenerative power of spring and new life. The pieces were created using repurposed copper, porcelain beads and small elements of recycled silver. Taking inspiration from the ephemeral yet exuberant nature of tree blossom, I have tried to capture their joyfulness as a symbol of Regeneration.

A visual response led by material experimentation. Pieces created using recycled rubber, reused copper and small elements of silver. The colour and textures of the rubber are reminiscent of rock strata, exposed layers and worn smooth surfaces.

Jewellery pieces created in response to climate issues, focusing on the two degree rise in global temperature we need to avoid. All the pieces focus on water, or the impact of it. Water is a beautiful, powerful element, not to be underestimated.

A glimpse into the development of my final major project Fragmented Beauty. Work based around the idea that the modern ideal of female beauty is viewed and created in fragmented parts, the body as a collection of objects rather than a whole person.

A project of experimental making that sprang from a visit to The Elizabethan House on The Barbican, the historical heart of Plymouth. Exploring fragmented views and forms that simultaneously reveal and conceal. 

A collection of pom pom jewellery based on the earlier Joy designs. Developed and made by the jewellery cohort to exhibit and sell at the Bovey Tracey Craft Festival. The collection was available for sale at The Victoria Sewart Contemporary Jewellery Gallery in Plymouth.

 Sculpture inspired by the folly at Mount Edgcumbe in Cornwall, designed  for a live brief and exhibited in  the stunning formal gardens. Later on display outside the Craft Studios at Arts University Plymouth.

Jewellery designs created for an in class brief to produce saleable items for the Bovey Tracey Craft Festival. Inspired by moments of joy and pops of colour.

1st year brief to design and make a narrative brooch. My brooch is a visual representation of my maiden name, and a little of my past.
