Roseanne Bartley
"My jewellery is produced from materials left behind, discarded and dismantled."
Roseanne's method of collecting is a process called surface archaeology, a method that enables her to observe, survey and gather material from sites in her neighbourhood. The materials Roseanne collects reveal aspects that are unique about a place or a person.
Born in Auckland and now living in Melbourne, Roseanne Bartley graduated in Fine Arts (Gold and Silversmithing) from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in 1991.
