Jenifer Wall

 

Rocks, stones and geological formations have always been a rich source of imagery for me, from smooth, tactile pebbles with lines of quartz, to crumbling cliffs with slipping layers of strata. I am fascinated by both the accumulation of sediment and the erosion of surfaces caused by time and I try to emulate these processes, to recreate a sense of age in the pieces.

 

More recently, I have returned to the numerous seeds and seedpods that inspired my earlier work and this has brought a change of scale away from the larger platters and containers, to concentrate on jewellery, lockets and small bowls.
