Join Silvera Jewelry School for this special talk with Victoria Lansford, as she discusses her new book Radiant Echoes: The Metal Mastery of Victoria Lansford, and her career as an artist, jeweler, and metalsmith.
Radiant Echoes showcases the artist’s journey through over three decades of ground-breaking applications of historical metalsmithing techniques. This retrospective publication comprehensively not only explores Lansford’s endless ability with complex metalsmithing techniques including filigree, Eastern repoussé, and granulation, but also speaks to how her skill and vision marry in the creation of objects that filters tradition through a contemporary lens. Simultaneously an artist, alchemist, and shaman, Lansford brings together the familiar with the unexpected through creative work that rethinks the millennia-old practice of turning raw materials into
precious objects.
