Miranda
is a Brighton based artist creating fine hallmarked jewellery
with a modern twist. Many pieces can be worn by either
sex and she has made items for weddings, civil partnerships
and commitment ceremonies as well as everyday jewellery.
Miranda
works in silver, gold and platinum creating affordable
and versatile pieces, inspired by nature, the elements
and concepts from alchemy. Her work is flowing, sculptural
and symbolic of lifecycles, welding artistic concept and
wearable craft.
The jewellery often uses homegrown and foraged objects,
"Some of the organic objects come from my garden,
such as poppy heads and chilli peppers. Miranda
uses a variety of techniques such as carving in sugar
before casting in metal. This reaches back to fine art
pieces where sugar was used to create forms.
Miranda also creates stunning and unique pieces of kiln
formed glass. Individually designed and handmade by the
artist, using fusing and slumping techniques. The organic
theme from her jewellery often continues through Miranda's
glass work, from the mix of materials to the colour palette
used.
The artist welcomes individual commissions and she is
happy to arrange visits to her studio by appointment.
