Title
Ethical Metalsmiths
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Susan Kingsley and Christina Tatiana Miller are metalsmiths who are members of the Society of North American Goldsmiths. In addition to making art, Susan writes about social and cultural issues. She had just completed The Price of Gold, an article about the effects of the current worldwide rush for gold published in Metalsmith (Summer 2004) when she was introduced to Christina, who had recently completed her masters thesis and graduate exhibition titled Ethical Prospects: A Critical Representation of the Co-Dependent Relationship Between Metalsmithing and Metalmining. Their collaboration evolved as they sought to reconcile their membership in a community of metalsmiths and jewelers who take pride in their craft with knowledge of the human and environmental costs of the metals they use.
