History
Graduated from GSA in 2003.
Inspired by the history of ornament Marianne Anderson’s jewellery is an exploration of traditional ornamental forms and an interpretation of the decorative.
Working within a restrained palette of oxidised silver, 18ct gold, red garnets and white pearls, she creates luxurious, wearable collections that reference the human fascination with adornment. Marianne skilfully uses traditional jewellery techniques to make her collections - luxurious stone settings, intricate pierced patterns, and detailed surface embellishment all add to the allure of each piece. The processes, finishes and traditions of metalwork have associations of their own that add to the historic elements that she portrays in a contemporary way in her work.
Recent work has seen development into modern technologies like CAD as way of translating historic pieces on an architectural scale to jewellery and objects achieving a level of detail not possible through hand-fabrication of the materials. Part time tutor at GSA
