Originally from Ottawa but now located in Mexico, artist Lissa Bowie creates numerous jewellery collections as well as one-of-a kind pieces using an array of metals, including copper, bronze, tumbagaa and sterling silver. Lissa likes to experiment with texture and contrast, working with a variety of techniques to finish every piece, and combining different looks to produce pieces that are modern but classic, elegant and kitsch.
