12 Brooches of Amsterdam

An unfinished project, in 2019 Amy endevoured to create one ambitious brooch per month inspired by a solo trip to Amsterdam in 2018. Each brooch is an exploration of idea, technique and material, whilst reflecting an inspiration or emotion from her time in Amsterdam. The collection became a challenging and emotional project for Amy, and ended with 10 complete Brooches. The project was showcased during SIERAAD Arts Fair in Amsterdam and by the Craft centre and Design Gallery in Leeds.
