Nicola Wilde

The tactile qualities of Nicola Wilde’s metal forms are inspired by water, and its intriguing movements. These visuals led her to create her organic pieces which mimic the soft appearance of water contained within a solid shell. Not just visually stimulating, Nicola’s work also contains a hidden playfulness: the vivid coloured powder held within the silver vessel’s will fizz and erupt upon contact with water. This effervescent, ephemeral jewellery gives an enchanting one-off bubbling performance. The silver vessels empty of the powder can still be worn after the short lived spectacle. Nicola graduated from Birmingham Institute of Art and Design with a BA (Hons) in Jewellery & Silversmithing.
