Tricia Wasney is a Winnipeg jewellery artist who uses recycled sterling silver, 24k gold foil, brass, and hand-felted wool in her hand-made rings, earrings, neckpieces, bracelets, and brooches. She uses heat and a variety of other methods to create texture, pattern and colour. Tricia’s jewellery is influenced by the landscape and, in addition to her retail work, she creates narrative jewellery-based artwork that explores memory, notions of home and place, and social and environmental issues.
“My jewellery often looks distressed; I like to think of it appearing as though a contemporary piece was unearthed from a long stay underground where it was worked upon by organic elements.”
Her work Township 13, a re-imagining of an air photo map and sixteen wearable jewellery pieces, will be included in the Lens Reflex exhibition at the Manitoba Craft Council, scheduled for spring/summer 2020.
Tricia learned jewellery making skills in Winnipeg and in New York City and has participated in artist residencies in Belfast, Northern Ireland and in Churchill, Manitoba. She will be serving as a mentor in the MAWA Foundation Mentorship Program in Fall 2020.
