Written in Stone Artists Panel

April 28 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

As jewelry artists, we draw inspiration from Arizona’s fascinating geology, which has both an awe-inspiring beauty and a complex history of extractive mining practices. Our work makes use of the same elements – stone and metal – and transforms them in creative ways to reveal and share their essential beauty. We cut stone and polish it. We look for subtleties in color and use contrasts in texture. We build compositions so that each stone sings in harmony. There is a certain alchemy at work here: the same rocks and minerals once viewed simply as commodities are transformed through loving attention to detail. The goal of Written in Stone is to showcase a diversity of area jewelers whose work exhibits both a high degree of craftsmanship and a sensitivity to, and inspiration from, the natural and cultural landscape.

Join us at NHI for a special artist panel on April 28th, at 7pm with several featured artists. Discover the inspiration and methods behind their work at this in-person panel discussion.

No registration is required, and FREE to attend.
