Tana Acton utilizes textile technology in metal, wrapping silver or
gold-filled wire over a sculptural framework, sometimes incorporating
gemstone beads or pearls in her bracelets and rings. She studied
metalworking in the 70s, explored modern dance and fashion design over the
years, and after all of her life experiences, she has given her desire to
the making of her jewelry. "Movement, air, and light are used to create
pieces that are at once delicate, yet solid, organic and sharply
contemporary."
