Vicki Mason

For Vicki Mason, making jewellery fulfils a need she has to create objects that can be worn, that hold special meanings and can potentially provoke in the wearer and viewer a need for a response or interaction of some kind. A dialogue is opened up – jewellery then acts as a portable tool for the communication of ideas.

Mason’s work references her passion for plants and gardens to explore notions of place, belonging and the life cycle. Plants native to Australia, exotic plants, plant forms found in the fine/decorative arts and plants used in gardens, parks and the urban environment are just some sources referenced and researched. Her recent research has involved delving into the arboreal world. She is interested in cross media/material discourses and utilising processes/techniques that seek to challenge traditional orthodoxies surrounding craft making.
