THIS JEWELLERY WANTS TO WEAR YOU.


Kate Marshall,
Beautiful and Dangerous Jewellery.

Kate completed Foundation in Art at Camberwell School of Arts, Followed by studies in Life drawing and Animation.

“My intention is to convey a pure love of texture and shape both created and natural.
But not always serious.

To breathe different life into the metal, heated, reformed and picking up the shadows. Rendering both movement and utter still.”


I have succeeded if I have created objects that desire to wear you.

I love to watch all the ways we have of expressing ourselves, verbally, through body language, interaction, personal space and through our choices in dressing the body.
Metals curling and enfolding extending about the body in tiny statements, Personal, Familiar and unfamiliar.

We choose Jewellery with ritual deliberation.
A series of short stories worn in sequence through life.

Wear these new stories as your own.”
