Beth Legg Design Inspiration

Design inspiration

Legg uses whole landscapes present in her environment as design inspiration. Legg Creates jewellery to mimic landscapes in her living environment (Legg 2012:139).  An example of this is the neckpiece which she made to resemble a pile of logs that she captured. Below you can see the captured images forming juxtaposition next to the final piece of jewellery allowing us to see her deep-rooted connection with the place that she lives in (Legg, n.d.):
