Iwona Tamborska (born 29 November 1985) is a Polish art jeweler, whose works are mosty recognized by the use of insects as part of the jewelry. The artist creates in a style inspired by the early XX century art, calling it “the new art nouveau”. Her creativity shows characteristic etherealness, dynamics and an intentional lack of symmetry. It is also strongly inspired by entomology, botany, biochemistry, astrophysics, graphic arts and ethnology. All her works are hand made in a single number and the unique base for their creation are such materials as: tropical butterflies, beetles and real flowers. She specializes in fusing traditional jewelry techniques with the Metal Clay technique. She uses an art name “Rękami Stworzone”, which in Polish means “Hand Created”. Iwona Tamborska majored from Landscape Architecture at Agricultural University in Krakow and Comperative Studies of Civilizations at Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland. She is a part of the prestigious ''„Stowarzyszenie Twórców Form Złotniczych” (Goldsmithing Artists Association)'', Poland Handmade association and Polish Creatives initative. She was also rewarded with the ''Poland Handmade/Polskie Rękodzieło'' quality sign. == Work technique == Insect shell is build with chitin, which takes a long time to decompose. This allows to use the external insect's crust in art work just like some seashells are used in jewelry. The artist uses real butterflies' wings and other insects’ shells (dragonflies, beetles, butterflies, hornets, cicadas), which after a proper preparation can be manually covered with many thin silver layers. During this process the organic compound is completely burned out, but leaves the perfect shape of its form in metal. Such object is therefore used as a base for further art-work, often as a reference to the symbolic meaning of the insect or as a part of a jewelry creation, which is meant to tell some story. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Iwona Tamborska」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
