Born and art educated in the UK, Sadie Cuming has always been
driven to create art. She has worked in a variety of media from fabric to clay,
but her current passion is working in metal and glass to create striking
jewelry.
Sadie’s work explores the
different shapes, rich textures and brilliant colors that can be achieved using
precious metals and glass. Sadie says, “Glass provides me with a palette of
vibrant colors in a range of transparency and translucency. I use other natural
materials, semi-precious stones and textural finishes to achieve a unique and
distinctive statement.”
Tantalizing themes recur throughout
Sadie’s work—vessels, open doors, interwoven threads, or seeds. Themes evolve
in different directions as she works with them, creating fresh and unexpected
results.
“I’m a hands-on artist,”
says Sadie. “I sketch my designs, shape the metals and form the glass. My pieces
may be one-of-a-kind, or one of a few, and people cherish that.”
