Kate has over 13 years experience exhibiting and selling her work in galleries and at exhibitions throughout the UK, Europe and the USA. She lives and works in a rural village in the Midlands, using the countryside around her as inspiration for her beautiful contemporary jewellery. In particular it is the wide variation of colour, shapes and forms found in different lichen species that fascinate. Their diversity offers a rich source of design material and through photography and sample collection Kate examines their minute complexity and translates aspects of this into her work.
