Deborah Francis - jewelry
My process of working can best be described as a tactile dialogue. The direction the work takes is guided by my willingness to see the unexpected and possible directions the material is able to move along toward a final form.
Polymer clay opened up a world of color and texture in creating my jewelry and sculpture. My background in ceramics made trying this material a natural progression. Its versatility, provides endless possibilities to explore.
The desire to expand my jewelry vocabulary in the last several years led to working with metals and using cold connections to combine polymer and metal together. I love assembling segments in interesting combinations and experiment with many different configurations until the composition resonates with me as I hope it will with you.
