Rosie Wesley
Rosie Wesley (BA Hons) is a metalwork and jewellery designer / maker living and working in Lymington in The New Forest with her studio situated at the back of her independent high street gallery Chalk’s.
Having lived in the New Forest for most of her life, Rosie takes the majority of her inspiration from the local area and creates her work from found natural objects. Focussing on texture and form, each of Rosie’s sculptural works and jewellery are individual, site-responsive pieces and are one-of-a-kind.
Rosie is fascinated by the concept of taking something from our natural environment and transforming it or assembling it into something else; giving it a new life away from it’s original environment. Her work allows you to appreciate natural spaces everyday, and preserve a part of them forever.
