A Visit from Suzanne Ramljak

Hello Everyone!
Today Suzanne Ramljak, editor of Metalsmith magazine, gave a lecture. The topic was contemporary body adornment and armor. It was an interesting (and amusing at times) lecture on wearable objects that people believe have the power to defend and protect. Either by deflecting the negative or attracting the positive. She covered everything from historical amulets and beliefs to their modern interpretations from artists such as Kelly Malec-Kosak, Jan Fabre and David Akins. Before the lecture began, Ms. Ramljak was gracious enough to take the time to look at my jewelry works. She was very nice and encouraging. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to meet her!
Until next time,
Brigitta
