Teri Howes Studio E2 Cockpit Arts Teri takes her inspiration from her love of fashion, textiles, pattern and geometry. Her mother's profession as a dressmaker meant that she has always been around rich patterned fabric and colourful thread. Also encourages to draw from an early age, she explored line drawing with an intense enthusiasm. Her first career spanning almost 20 years was as a graphic designer in several prestigious London design agencies. She has come to see her jewellery pieces quite literally, as 'drawings in the air' - the pencil line replaced with precious metal wire. She works with simple crochet stitches, repeated rhythmically in fluid silver or gold, with patience sculptural forms emerge. The stitches are often both the structure and the embellishment. Teri finds in this 'low tech' production method, a gentle, quiet rebellion against todays world of 'instant everything'.
