Meghan O'Rourke Jewellery
Adelaide, SA. Australia
As a contemporary jeweller and metalsmith Meghan O'Rourke aims to create precious objects for the body that are both playful and ornate. Meghan has spent several years as an associate designer and access tenant within the JamFactory's Metal Design Studio.
She has also gained recognition in various fine art awards including The Waterhouse Art Prize, first place in the National Contemporary Jewellery Award and an Indian residency. Meghan has exhibited widely both here in Australia & internationally, most recently being invited as the only Australian jeweller exhibit at the Museum of Arts & Design in New York.
Her work combines traditional precious metals with the vivid colour palate of anodized titanium, having developed unique hand dying and texturing techniques. Her jewellery often explores the use of patterns derived from the delicate structures found in nature, including foliage and coral.
