Small Red Pod Brooch with Pearl

Anodized aluminum, freshwater pearl

In a dynamic and inventive process, Jane Adam creates works of adornment from anodized aluminum. Works of art arise out of this light and malleable metal as she conversely, creates a solid and durable expression to last forever. Texture emerges through a tapestry of color as the metal is crazed, and as hue softens and patinas. Shaped into the form of a seed pod, the artist likens its figure to a work of organic allure, captivating the eye with its curvature and animated movement. Completing the piece and within its artistic grasp, is a sweet, freshwater pearl. Adam's brooch exudes vibrancy and eloquence upon the body, and a lasting fixture of perpetual admiration.
