JAMIE SPINELLO
I create one of kind copper and brass jewelry from reclaimed materials. I use patinas and enamels to change the surface colors. I hand draw and etch all of my etched items in my studio using eco-friendly solutions.
My inspiration comes from architecture, antique machine design, fossils, marine life, astronomy and insect anatomy. I use reclaimed solid copper, brass and aluminum l to create my designs. I love building forms by soldering wires, metal sheets and domed surfaces together; turning simple patterns into objects of symbology. My most recent adventure in metal working has been etching one of a kind hand drawn jewelry and cutting their unique contours out of metal sheet.
