Artist Statement:
"The creation and collection of jewelry, for me, is about
intimacy. Something personal is expressed in the wearing of
handmade jewelry." Deb Karash
Deb Karash sees her work as a metaphor for human characteristics,
the layers of the personality and the mystery of the spirit.
The texture and colors blended to create each surface are
like the subtle traits that we discover as we get to know
each other. Connections: mechanical,
metaphorical, and emotional, play a crucial role in her work
and in her life as a maker.
Fusing
the intuitive nature of drawing and the technical skills of
metalsmithing, Deb combines copper, silver, brass and
colored pencil into wearable, portable works of art. Layers
of colored pencil applied to a textured copper surface
suspended over cool sterling bring each piece to life. |
