'Nature is precious, sustaining myself & my family in many ways.


Our Garden we rewilded from rough land, the food we grow, walks & swims on the coast & ever growing knowledge of stars & cosmos.

​
​Pollution & disconnection to these systems threatens our Earth'
Bio:

Melissa Hampson-Smith trained in Fine Art, Sculpture, Silversmithing, Performance and Environmental Science.


Creating wearable navigation sculptures, talismans containing hidden maps and secrets for the wearer.


Inspiration from environments, deep time, micro & macro, space travel, colonisation of celestial bodies, mining asteroids, extreme weathers, discarded man-made materials, protecting our Oceans and rewilding our Earth.


Working recycled metals with beach stones in situ on the Cornish coast, a rich metal mining area, she connects Earth, Moon, & Ocean.

Adding raw & cut gems alongside "Future Gems" (she upscales from discarded plastics) tree resins, seeds, found things and vintage finds.
