The art of magpiealchemy
jewellery and decorative objects
handmade by Ella Knight
I work in the exciting and unpredictable
world of recycled and found materials. From my own and my friend’s homes, businesses, schools, second hand shops and markets I collect discarded packaging, unwanted toys, gadgets, and ‘useless’ things like empty pens and broken sunglasses, and take them to my workshop in West Hobart where they take on a new life. These gleanings from my society become the materials from which I select colours, shapes and textures, in my endeavour to create jewellery which is vibrant and ethically sound. For me this work incorporates personal stories of connection, perception, and joy in
the
unexpected.
