Ilse-Marie Erl immigrated from Germany to New Zealand in 1986. In 1999 she graduated with a Bachelor of Design from Unitec School of Design and Visual Arts and became a lecturer there from 2001 until it closed in 2013.
Ilse-Marie enjoys playing with rhythm and texture and exploring the beauty to be found in all surfaces, from the sparkle of a diamond or the subtle textures and tonal variations found in a piece of concrete to the the tactile qualities of pure silver, and conveys her discoveries with a high degree of technical skill.
"I love finding inspiration for my work in my immediate environment. Living in West Auckland, I am fortunate to be able to move between a busy urban life and exquisite natural habitat. So I reference urban and natural formal qualities in my designs."
