Featuring: Heather McDermott
This is the first of three posts featuring the wonderful jewellers showing their work in the gallery this spring.
Heather, an island jeweller based at Aird, Skye makes beautiful work inspired by her coastal surroundings. At Edinburgh College of Art Heather's bench was always the messiest, covered in colourful plastics, enamelled metals and wire structures reminiscent of lobster pots and creels. After a successful masters following her undergraduate degree heather has been busy ever since, with exhibitions, residencies and exciting projects. Heather is such an inspiration to me, its a pleasure to have her work in the gallery.
