Janine Arnold graduated from the Goldsmithing department at the Royal College of Art in summer 2006.
Her work celebrates the interplay of wearable jewellery and autonomous objects. In combination with an apparent attention to detail it reveals a narrative character in both her wearable and sculptural pieces.
It is the sudden attraction to a second hand matter or shape, being dissociated from its original function that catches her attention. This attraction leads to the initial process of inventing new stories, creating pieces to wear, to hug or to balance on the shoulder.
It is also the unpredictable attraction to a matter which is allegorized as a perpetual recycling process in her animated artwork.
