Georgina Burgess

Bishopsland Fellow 2016-2017

Georgina is a contemporary jewellery designer and maker, who graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, Dundee.

She is inspired by the body, especially movement and details of expression when dancing. Georgina works from quick dynamic drawings of professional and non professional dancers, and translates different forms of movement into silver.

Georgina gained great insight when she attended rehearsals at the
Scottish Dance Theatre, and when meeting designers and dancers at the
Beyond Jewellery/flockOmania Conference in Birmingham, March 2016.

Georgina continues to explore these themes, as well as her own rhythms, balance and capabilities within dance and jewellery.
