Isabella Kelley

Bishopsland Fellow 2020-2021

Isabella graduated from De Montfort University with a first-class BA (Hons) in Design Crafts.

Isabella’s time at Bishopsland was marked by her success in winning the Arts Society Silversmithing competition with her unique and intricate dual-function candle holder and being shortlisted in the Cutler’s Contemporary Cutlery Design competition.

Isabella’s silverware and jewellery are inspired by texture, pattern, and found objects alongside imagery from her local scenery. She is a process-led maker, driven by exploring and perfecting new techniques. The most recent development within her practice is the combination of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) with traditional workshop processes.
