About Abbi Marie

I am a jewelry artist based in Ann Arbor, Michigan with a BFA in Jewelry from the Savannah College of Art and Design. Even from an early age I have been attracted to personal adornment and the practice of creating, I suppose you could say, like a moth to a flame.

I’ve always been fascinated by the natural world, by how it can feel very familiar but also very foreign to us. The almost alien anatomy of insects and seemingly infinite forms of flora feel as though they should be part of another realm, not overlooked as a part of our day to day lives. My work brings these creatures and habitats into the forefront. Through what often feels like a magical process, I transform sheet metal, wire, and blocks of wax into pieces that bring these menageries to life.
