Collection: Rachel Long

Rachel long experiments with the future potentials of a contemporary weaver who merges her jewellery making practice into works that explore the elements of form, rhythm and materiality.

Since completion of a Bachelor of Design with Honours majoring in textile design at Massey University and a Diploma of Jewellery Design in Melbourne, Rachel has been developing her creative practice at the Livelihood textile studio in Wellington.

Through the mediums of textile design and metal smithing, artefacts are created that demonstrate an intimate understanding of the relationship between maker, materials, and object.
