Veleri Smith
WIGGLY COUTURE, Tucson AZ
Wiggly Couture is interwoven as a sister line to Smith Silversmith named and introduced in 1998. I was inspired to develop festive, unexpected designs for body embellishment using upcycled, vintage elements, Bakelite, plastics, stones, metals that transform memories into treasures. Jewelry shouldn't always be serious. It should speak to you, while making you smile, feel festive and colorful.
Shown in small batches as companions with Smith Silversmith offerings (since its inception) in Trunk showings, within juried art events and my gallery collections.
Organized showings:
Warehouse 414 Gallery, Topeka Ks. 2009- 2020
Artisans on Main Gallery, La Veta Co 2018- 2024
Seen by Friends and Fans upon request
Currently Represented at: Horses in Motion Gallery, Tubac AZ
​
Additional Information: Smith Silversmith enjoys 50 years of experience in the metal arts arena; 1 am a current member of the Silver Hive metalsmisthing guild, Tucson Az since 2010; an avid collector of fine vintage objects and antiquities- as well as unusual kinetic objects that become elements in Wiggly juxtapositions.
Enjoy, Val Smith
