ABOUT THE ARTIST"As we move on to the new, instead of detaching ourselves from the vintage and classic history in our lives we should manifest them into beautiful nostalgic pieces of art. Beautiful bygones attract me and fuel me to create artistic expressions that get a new life." ~ Nilanjan Bhowmik |

ARTIST STATEMENT I am a metalsmith and mix media artist. I have endeavored to create unique handmade pieces of jewelry from antique watch parts, vintage silverware, vintage guitar strings, natural stones and other locally sourced materials which are put together with intricate metal-smithing techniques locally in Chester County. I delve in the world of steampunk jewelry and my goal is to make every piece a conversation starter. The jewelry that I present is created as a miniature sculpture which will add intrigue and beauty to any wardrobe. |
