STACY ELLEN RICH ☥METALIST☥

ME

Stacy Ellen Rich discovered metalwork, jewelry fabrication and lost wax casting in a high school class circa 1987. Her pieces echo 70s Brutalist art, relics, Egyptian iconography, Judaica and the New Romantics. Rich took her love for the art abroad to study in Florence, Italy. Soon after her return to the states, she segued into costume and bespoke design. After so many years without the art of metal work in her life, Rich desired to rekindle that love. She has incorporated her metal designs into various costume and couture projects. Rich still has her first exhibition pieces from high school. She holds true on that original technique and aesthetic she created so long ago. Rich is a member of the Costume Designers Guild 892.

ANKH TAPESTRY IN PROCESS

Metal as ornamentation & protection. I primarily work in antimicrobial metals. Copper or its alloys brass and bronze are by nature antimicrobial. To the ancient Egyptians, The Ankh, as well as being the symbol for eternal life, is also the symbol for copper in their system of hierogylphs ☥
