Nicola Bannerman

 

Australia

Contemporary jeweller Nicola Bannerman is based in Sydney, Australia. Her work explores the recurring patterns in the natural world, like spirals and leaf forms. She is also inspired by the mathematical and crystallographic forms in minerals. Nicola predominately works with precious metals and gemstones, using techniques of fabrication, saw-piercing, stone setting, fold forming, casting and more. Nicola has previously been awarded the Centre for Contemporary Craft Award for most outstanding post-graduate in New South Wales, Australia, and an Australia Council for the Arts grant for group exhibition work. Regularly commissioned to create jewellery and sculptures, Nicola has a Bachelor with Honours in Jewellery and Object Design from the Sydney College of the Arts (Sydney University).
