Hilary Hachey Handmade Jewelry Artisan Unique jewelry inspired by sculpture Biography | Portfolio
Once a visual concept has been established I must solve the problem of translating that concept into metal. My goal is to retain the sculptural qualities of the design while maintaining the function of the piece. I am motivated by the desire to create a piece that stands alone as sculpture and together with the wearer as adornment. I first started working with metal after college in 1994. I worked in many mediums prior to this, but when I started manipulating metal it just made sense. After much experimentation and apprenticing I started my own business in 2000. Every piece is hand-fabricated from start to finish in my Baltimore studio. I want to thank everyone who has purchased a piece of Hilary Hachey jewelry. I am constantly flabbergasted and flattered by the enthusiasm expressed by customers in the cities I visit. |
