Artist of the Month - September 2024
Roberto Mannela
Enamel Jewelley
'From an early age, like many children, I was captivated by rocks and minerals. Collecting them quickly became a passion, and by the age of 18 this evolved into an interest in creating jewellery from the rocks I collected or cut as a lapid artist. Crafting more complex pieces and introducing the use of enamels provided me with greater flexibility to explore ideas, inspired by the natural environment.
From there a fascination with opals and the opal mining towns where they are found developed. My inspiration grew from the beautiful colours and patterns of this majestic gemstone and the harsh environments from which they are mined.
I am also influenced by the smooth, undulating features and geological formations of the terrain, the rippling effects of desert sands in the outback, the shadows that form over the landscape and the constellations that dot the night sky.
Through my work, I find that expressing my thoughts and ideas through wearable jewellery or other forms of art enriches my soul.'
