Grainne Morton
If Grainne Morton was to have a spirit animal, no doubt it would be the magpie. Instinctively and obsessively drawn to collecting and hoarding anything miniature or precious that catches her eye. Grainne has amassed an incredible collection of objects - all destined to find their place among the tales she weaves within her jewelled compositions. Born and raised in Northern Ireland, by creative and antique-loving parents, Grainne was immersed in and surrounded by the traditional crafts, folklore, music and fairy Tales of the country. Her individuality, and the expression of that - primarily through clothes, style and the considered presentation of [her]self - is engrained in each piece of jewellery she makes. Each piece is carefully choreographed. All of the precious objects are placed so as to establish a relationship with one another, and tell a story to the viewer.
Moving to Edinburgh, Scotland, in the late eighties to study at Edinburgh College of Art was the jump off point for Grainne to become an avid collector of antiques and ephemera. This use of unexpected, and delightfully juxtaposed, materials is where it all started, and over 20 years later, is now firmly her trademark.
