Josephine Gomersall
Josephine Gomersall is a Jeweller and Artist Silversmith creating botanical sculptures and Silver Jewellery using traditional hand tools and Silversmithing techniques. She is based at Yorkshire Artspace, Persistence Works in Sheffield.
Her work is inspired by familiar British wildflowers and plant-forms, exploring notions of transience, preciousness and connectedness to nature. Her pieces are evocative and everlasting, capturing tiny details depicted in lustrous precious metal, as a celebration of the fleeting beauty of the natural world.
She originally trained in Surface Pattern Design, then Printed Textile Design, before working in Industry as a Textile Designer and Product Developer.
