Daniel Waddington
The Silver Apple Collective are pleased to welcome Daniel Waddington....
Daniel Waddington is a new up and coming designer whose over-sized Garden Jewellery questions the way we visualise jewellery. He has stripped it from the body and used it to highlight the beauty of the garden. Using steel, brass and cement he creates strong iconic forms that contrast with the surroundings, applying contemporary patinas to create colours to compliment the garden.
The increasing popularity of gardening has instigated a new movement in garden adornment, of which Daniel Waddington is at the forefront. His creative over-sized garden jewellery exhibit the future of garden sculpture.
