Erin
Dolman
Artist’s
Bio
A
Vancouver born metalsmith, Erin Dolman's work encompasses a broad range
of materials and techniques. Everything from traditional gold wedding
bands to finely crafted sterling silver chainmail, to hand-raised
copper bowls. Erin finds an intrinsic value in whatever material she
happens to be working with: silver, gold, rusted bits of iron, precious
stones or beach rocks. All have potential for greatness.
Erin's
current work focuses on the casting and fabrication of both precious
and non-ferrous metals, with an occasional foray into glass, wood and
bone.
Japanese
art, cycles of death and regeneration and natural images combine to
create elegant jewellery and precious objects that will perhaps
challenge the viewer's notions of conventional beauty.
Erin's
fascination with the crow has influenced her work and business name.
