Jayne Redman


With the linear quality that it brings from the stems and the fullness of the flower buds, nature inspires endlessly in reference to Jayne’s work. Redman primarily uses 18k gold and sterling silver. Many of her forms are multiples of the same shape, engineered to fit together with precise economy that results in an abstract interpretation of their botanical source material. She also uses a technique called keum-boo which is 24K gold that is heat-fused to silver. Redman uses different patina in her work as well. She uses handmade dies to cut out the pieces of her work so that she can make multiples quite easily .
