Much of Brenda Roy’s jewellery explores contrasts in colour and texture: smooth stone and polished metal set off by fused or roller printed textures; precious gems and metals paired with rough minerals and contemporary designs that have the feel of ancient artifacts. She loves to play with the surprise of asymmetrical designs in unexpected material combinations and is one of the few metal artists in the country extensively using stone inlay in her work.
“I believe there is still a place for beautiful, well-made objects and that these objects enrich our lives. A piece of jewellery acquires meaning over time as it develops associations with the stories of our lives, and these acquired meanings are as important for me as the artist’s original concepts.” - Brenda Roy
