Carolyn
Delzoppo
Jewellery Designer / Cloisonne
Enamelling (Mullumbimby, NSW)
Carolyn
Delzoppo designs and handcrafts individual pieces of contemporary jewellery
and miniatures inspired by her experiences and impressions of the environment.
She specialises in cloisonne enamelling, where coloured glass in filigree
designs is fused to precious metals such as gold or silver.
Carolyn
has been exhibiting her cloisonne jewellery and miniature art works for two decades,
and has received many awards both in Australia and internationally, including
Japan, the United States and Spain. She has participated
as a judge in international enamallist competions and her work is available in
many galleries throughout Australia. She teaches several workshops
and classes in cloisonne enamelling each year. "I
am a miniaturist. I believe that small is beautiful, and that details are important.
These ideas I express with the traditional technique of cloisonne enamel on metal.
Most recently my work, both miniatures and jewellery, has been a commentary on
environmental issues, or has been inspired from observations in a small patch
of the planet, my garden in northern New South Wales."
