Fiona Macintyre has been making jewellery and hollowware for over 25 years.
Fiona holds a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art from the University of Guelph and an Honours Bachelor of Design from OCADU in Jewellery and Metalsmithing. She has completed an internship with Lois Etherington Betteridge and employment with established jewellery designers along with museum work and teaching opportunities.
Lured by the magical transformation of a hard material into fluid forms and shapes, in her contemporary sculptural jewellery and hollowware, she honours the traditional techniques of silversmithing; hammering, forging, raising.
Currently she divides her time between teaching visual art, metalsmithing workshops and her studio.
