About Sungirl Silver
Currently based in East Sussex, I am seeking positions and opportunities Teaching or Lecturing and keen to get involved with any creative projects, from commissions to research, anywhere in the south of England.
I feel a fundamental connection with the ideals of the Arts & Crafts movement, namely that the satisfaction of creating is derived from knowing & performing all the processes from concept to delivery and that a simple, well made, handcrafted object is a thing of beauty. I approach all tasks with this in mind, whether I am working as an Artist, Jeweller, Smithy, Tutor or Writer.
Offering students an understanding into all the stages of a project offers them a skill set to independantly create their own ideas with a keen feeling of satisfaction in their work.
There are only two things in this world, The natural and the man-made. The ingenuity of the latter comes from the intimate study of the former. "Nature is knowledge manifest. All knowledge among humans is taken from the investigation of that manifestation." Martin Pretchel, 1998
