Guest bio: Guest Bio: Hannah Martin is a leading contemporary designer whose fine jewellery emit a uniquely edgy energetic aesthetic. Hannah founded her own workshop in Clerkenwell, East London in 2006 shortly after graduating from St Martin’s, since when her work has been acclaimed by the press and jewellery lovers alike for its uncompromising post-punk vision. Her pieces straddle the gender divide as well as confronting norms of beauty and function. https://www.hannahmartinlondon.com
Since first encountering Hannah Martin's pieces over a decade ago, I have admired her uncompromising approach to designing jewellery that speaks to her essential vision. It is non-derivative, non-gender, non-prescriptive. It explores our deepest attachments to jewellery, life and emotion, in a way that is more than just crafting pieces from gorgeous gems and precious metal. It just exists now and always in the moment. To speak to her and learn about her life and journey was transfixing, the passion and intelligence she emits is bewitching. Hannah is a phenomenally talented person but so easy to speak to, and so openly honest about her story. Listen to her describe her process in this revealing podcast episode. This was a conversation I was so excited to have with a real jewellery hero of mine, and even more excited to be able to share with you, and I hope you enjoy it, too.
I want to hear from you!
