Suse Scholem graduated from Monash
University in 2010 with a Bachelor of Arts, a Bachelor of Fine Art and Honours
in Fine Art. Based in Melbourne, Suse is particularly passionate about the
social potential of contemporary jewellery, whilst prioritising sustainable
practice.
The use of recycled metals and found
objects feature significantly in Scholem's work. Experimenting with unusual
natural materials in her production work, Suse creates one-off pieces, guided
in design by the organic components she fervently collects.
Her range for Lord Coconut employs
alchemical processes, such as electro-forming and direct casting, combined with
old worlde aesthetics and a sensitive appreciation of bodily materials. Each
piece is uniquely hand made by the artist.
