Georgie Brooks
Georgie Brooks is a Melbourne based contemporary jeweller. Through her pieces she explores imagined histories referencing a cross-section of ancient cultures from the mysterious Bronze Age, to the Viking Era. The design of her work suggests pieces have been worn in another time through an imaginary life journey or an object that might have been excavated amongst a buried hoard of treasures.
Most of her collection hold custom designed gemstones that are hand fossicked and cut in Australia. There is often the surprising shape, colour or form which adds to the story telling in her work. As her work is designed like this and all of the stones are hand-cut, the final outcome is often surprising, unique and holds a certain amount of mystery.
