Barbro Eriksdotter
creates contemporary art jewelry and small objects. Her native
Sweden informs her aesthetic - clean, minimalist lines of
mostly abstract shapes are dominant. However, the influence
of her early focus on fiber arts is apparent in her frequent
use of textures as a dynamic juxtaposition to the essence
of simplicity of line and form.
A partner since 1983 of Studio Metallum
(#201), known for its innovative contemporary designs, Barbro
is a member of the Art League School faculty and Washington
Guild of Goldsmiths (past president).
Her award winning work has been featured
in numerous local, national and international juried exhibitions.
"Visual images bombard my mind
all the time. Some insist, urgently, to be explored. Then
logical process takes over and guides the implementation of
an idea into concrete form. The (mostly) joyous ride thus
begins
