Spirit-led. New Zealand artist working with sculpture, jewellery, painting, and nourishing food.
A Place In Between was born from dreams.
The in between revealed itself as a meeting place,where time softens, where souls remain connected, and where love continues beyond form. It is the space between breath and body, forest and fire, memory and becoming.
This name carries the heart of my work, giving form to what is often felt but unseen.
Through jewellery worn close to the skin, sculptures made to inhabit space, and nourishing food prepared with intention, I offer tangible reminders of hope , small acts of magic in a world that longs to be held more gently.
You listen before you make.
To the quiet knowing beneath the hands.
From earth, fire, and spirit, you shape sculpture, paint, adornment, and nourishment.
Metal remembers the flame.
Stone remembers the sea.
Food remembers the care with which it was gathered.
Your work lives in the spaces between
between nourishment and protection,
between the body and the soul that wears it.
I gather materials on solitary wanderings — foraged stones, drifted sea glass, and natural treasures found along coastlines and forests. Each piece I collect carries its own story, and I honour it by shaping it entirely by hand into jewellery, sculptural forms,
I work primarily with copper, brass, and silver, allowing the materials to guide me as I form organic, elvish-warrior-inspired designs. My aim is to create pieces you can wear, or bring into your home — objects that carry warmth, presence, and a quiet sense of magic.
My work is an invitation to pause, to notice, and to bring a little of that magic into your life.
Jess 💛
