I am a jeweller, designer and maker - I work out of my private studio in Adelaide, South Australia.
My work explores the relationship between precious materials and the body. I am fascinated with how adornment affects the wearer, often reflecting an emotion or way of thinking, and how a piece of jewellery can become a part of the wearer, not only as a physical adornment, but as a part of their identity.
My practice focuses on client based commission works and limited edition collections.
Thank you for visiting,
Kate Sutherland
