Layer necklace recycled plastic and aluminium

Product description

I trained in Fine Art Tapestry at Edinburgh College  of Art in the 90’s; this was where my fascination with reusing and recycling began. I created installation based artwork using all sorts of mediums from plastic bags and rusty metal to mud and blood. My work at the time explored the interaction between man and nature, and though there have been many changes along the way, the interest in how we interact with our environment has always been key to what I do.

Range explores my use of recycled plastics. I use recycled plastic bottles to create this range colouring it with my own specialist techniques. The bottles are given to me by members of the local community and all the recycling is done in house.

​

I love the bold colours created and have been exploring this along with form, creating striking contemporary designs.
