Lyrical
Elegance
Ben
Dyer has been making art since childhood and began
creating jewelry in 1975. His work is exhibited
in galleries and art shows nationwide.
Direct
metal techniques such as cold forging , handforming,
texturing, and gold soldering are the methods used
to constuct the
jewelry.The techniques are labor-intensive, and
the finished work is detailed and meticulous.
For
Ben, a successful design suggests motion, reveals
unique aspects from different angles , and expresses
elegance and grace in asymmetry.
In
his designs, flowing lines and elongated forms
contrast with coarser, textured, or hard-edged
shapes. Use of gemstones and colors of gold provide
accent and color contrast.
