New York Eco Jewellery
This tactile range is a collaboration between art jeweller Samantha
and plastic designer Stella Corrall. Their aim was to produce a wearable
yet elegant range that fuses Sam's and Steella's desire to use recycled
materials in a simple understated way. Stella has made the the bespoke
material from encapsulating recycled plastics and threads in her
translusent plastics. Through Sam's stylish interpretation and Stella's
production techneques each piece becomes desirably unique.
The interest whithin textile components, techniques and especially
'The Thead of Society' spool range came from growing up locally whithin
the textile industry that once built our society, and playing with her nan's
sewing box, creates fond memories of the objects that makes a precious
piece of jewellery.
Influenced strongly by Marcel Duchamps ready mades and the creative
act, not only applies this to her work but also within her workshop
facilliation and project managment for various organisations.
Sam is also events co ordinator of our 'Rags to Riches' Summer event
2008 and plays an active within the development of the
Woodend Artist Network.
