Brenda Roy
My work tends to be material and process driven rather than conceptual.
I love to play with the surprise of asymmetrical designs and unexpected material combinations. On a visual level, my work explores contrasts in metal and stone: smooth stone and polished metal set off by fused or roller printed textures; the play of colour in unique stone inlays; precious gems and metals paired with rough minerals or broken pottery shards; and contemporary designs that have the feel of ancient artefacts.
I believe there is still a place for beautiful, well-made objects and that these objects enrich our lives.
