brass, 100 x 103 x 50mm, 2025.
‘Seafoam neckpiece is an intricately saw-pierced choker made from the non-precious material brass. Despite the inaccessibility of silver or gold, and the cost effective choice of rigid brass, I found that I could still make something beautiful through care and labour. In this piece I suggest that value is not solely monetary in jewellery, and can instead come from a memory, sentiment or sustained effort. As the wave pulls away from the shore of the beach what remains is the seafoam which clings to your feet. It becomes a kind of reminder of the wave prior, and a symbol of the memory held. A reminder of the value in being.’
Natasha Poulos is a Greek-Indonesian-Australian emerging multidisciplinary artist working across printmaking, textiles, jewellery, and small-scale sculpture. Her practice draws on the environment, human anatomy, and molecular structures, and occasionally is interwoven with reflections on political unrest. Through storytelling, she explores themes of identity and cultural heritage, using materiality to enhance meaning. Fabrics allow for soft, fluid forms, while metalwork introduces structure and surface. Techniques such as saw piercing, repoussé, and painted finishes enable her to navigate positive and negative space, transforming flat materials into dimensional forms that carry both physical and conceptual depth.
