Catcophony Wearable Art by Diane Perry grew from a desire to create jewelry with simple lines and timeless appeal. Catcophony, a play on cacophony, resulted from the inability to settle on only one technique for creating jewelry and a love of cats. The artisan uses both traditional and unconventional jewelry techniques to create wearable art from copper, silver, and brass. The use of a scrapbooking technique resulted in the ‘Watercolor’ earrings she created for celebrities & media at the GBK Productions Oscars Gift Lounges and the GBK Productions Prime Time Emmy Awards Gift Lounge, and an embossed & patinaed line for the GBK Productions MTV Movie Awards Gift Lounge. She is currently working on a copper fold-formed jewelry, an expanded embossed and patinaed line, etched and woven metalwork, and metal clay pieces in fine silver, sterling silver, copper, and bronze metal clay.
