A silversmith working predominantly in silver, Jayne creates objects that combine functionality with sculptural elements,
contrasting intricate pattern with clean simple lines.
Vessels are either hand-raised or spun from sheet silver, then formed and textured by hand.
Inspiration for Jayne’s work is derived from organic pattern and microscopy.
Recent work has been informed by the structures of microscopic marine plankton such as diatoms and radiolarian.
These have been observed from the collection of slides that she has built up over several years.
Her current work explores vulnerability and support.
She explores these themes using shapes and textures in silver.
Soft flower stems such as tulips and gerberas are a metaphor for vulnerability.
The vase and its sculptural elements provide the support for the flowers so they can be displayed and enjoyed at their best.
