This collection is inspired by an abandoned, derelict industrial building and its decayed materials, which I believe have a unique beauty and character that reflect local history and experiences of life. As it is reclaimed by nature, I am reminded of the cycle of life and death, and am filled with a sense of hope and possibility.
Maria Hammond
I'm a mixed media artist, inspired by the transformative process of time and the representation of memory in buildings and objects. I'm driven by sustainability and believe that jewellery can make a statement about our relationship with the environment. By using materials that go unnoticed, or go to waste, I seek to create pieces that are both beautiful and responsible, that reflect the beauty in aging and the stories that are embedded within the materials themselves.
