Katherine Rudolph [2009, Jewelry + Metalsmithing]
My work is highly inspired by architectural forms. My design process often begins with paper models which I find translate well into thin gauge sheet metal, which I score & fold. This is a favorite technique as it allows for voluminous yet deceivingly lightweight forms. I strive for crisp, geometric forms & explore possibilities of pattern & repetition. I work primarily in sterling silver and 18k gold, adding pops of color through the use of stones, as well as contrast & depth with oxidation.
