Joanne Haywood
graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2001, when she set up as a
studio jeweller. Whilst she mainly designs and makes jewellery to be

addition to being a studio jeweller, Joanne is also a lecturer in
Art and Design and has taken part in a wide range of teaching
projects and residencies. She currently runs the First Diploma at

"My work explores
the essence of materials and the permanence of jewellery as physical
objects and a transitional idea. Wire compositions are altered by
charcoal and wood oxidisation.
Drawing on the
contradiction and conflicts of opposites: Skeletal forms and fleshy
volumes, natural and unnatural, the absence of colour and the
addition of colour, light and shadow, within and beyond control."
