About The Artist
Mary Farrell
Mary Farrell Design creates original and distinctive contemporary silver jewellery designs in a linear and modernist style. All work is hand made in Scotland, inspired by both natural and industrial forms, combining the linear and abstract in pieces which play with form, pattern, and texture.
She’s drawn to miniature worlds - seed pods, petal forms, decaying flower heads, and tiny, usually unseen, organisms – and the way that patterns are repeated throughout nature on a small, and sometimes grand, scale.
Her work reflects her habit of garden gathering, and the collection and observation of the cycle of flower to seed. Recent work has been inspired by lockdown forest walks and beach combing, tidelines, and shoreline discoveries.
