Iona Hall is a silversmith and jeweller with a passion for objects and the aspect of discovery that they hold. Hall's work inspires a compulsion to pick her pieces up, a personal keepsake that demands further exploration from the viewer. Her pieces create an intimate space between the viewer and the object. Hall is drawn to movement, lines and irregular patterns in natural forms from the beaches near her home in Scotland. She translates these elements into her work using the techniques of chasing and repousse, detailed soldering of wires, and scoring and folding, with the additional use of stone setting to bring a hint of colour to her work. Iona exhibits both nationally and internationally.
