Barbro Eriksdotter creates contemporary
art jewelry and small objects. Her native Sweden informs her
aesthetic to the extent that clean, minimalist lines of mostly
abstract shapes are dominant in her work. However, one sees
the influence of her previous focus on fiber arts in her frequent
use of textures as a dynamic juxtaposition to the essence
of simplicity.
A partner since 1983 of Studio Metallum
(#201), known for its innovative contemporary designs, Barbro
is also a member of the Art League School faculty, Washington
Guild of Goldsmiths (past president), Society of North American
Goldsmiths (SNAG), and many other professional organizations.
Her award winning work has been featured
in numerous local, national and international juried exhibitions.
The following statement is an enduring
inspiration:
"That art is best which to the soul's range gives
no bounds;
something besides the form, something beyond the sound."
