Interwoven

Interwoven explores the intricate connection that binds us materially, conceptually, and communally. In metalsmithing, we interweave techniques, traditions, and materials. Intricate patterns revealed through piercing, fine wires coiled into filigree, links forged into chains, disparate elements soldered into cohesive forms. These physical acts of joining mirror the invisible threads that link us as artists - through mentorship, collaboration, shared histories, and collective growth.
 
Interwoven invites us to consider how our practices are shaped by others, how ideas evolve through exchange, and how communities of makers form strong, flexible bonds that support and inspire. Just as a single strand gains strength when woven into a larger whole, so too does the artist within the field of contemporary craft.
