Wearable Objects

Erica Stankwytch Bailey

Fayetteviller, NC Metalsmith

Exhibiting Member since 2005

My work involves a variety of technical applications that allow me to create conceptual and aesthetic works.  I inspect the world in great detail and have always collected shells, seed pods, stones and interesting organic elements.  My studio often resembles a laboratory with trays of collected specimens lined in rows.  Whether by fear or fascination, disgust or admiration, I am constantly moved by life.

Lamination, chasing, metal weaving, fabrication, enameling, forging, raising, forming and cast metal parts are often combined in my workin an effort to create pieces that are tactile and invoke in the wearer a sense of personal attachment.  Using these techniques allows me to take small pieces of history/time and translate them in to visual moments for the viewer and myself.
