Jessica Awaritefe

Jessica considers herself a metal artist in training who makes jewellery and object d’art inspired by her love of the natural
world; art to wear and to look at, bringing beauty and truth into the everyday through metal.

For her, becoming a goldsmith and metal artist is a calling, a gift she’s been graciously given to steward. Her influences stem from the Japonisme era when western goldsmiths were influenced by the novelty of Japanese art being brought into the continent. Through her study of nature and the art life of Japan she aims to imbue
these influences in everything she makes.
