Jane Hodgetts is a jewellery artist and arts educator whose work presents a raw and expressive combination of sterling silver and brass with a focus on a handmade aesthetic. Jane aims for her work to show traces of process, irregular shapes, hammer marks, and natural patina. She hopes to emphasise the idea of time passing, as if the jewellery has already had its own significant history, as if it has been dug up during an archaeological dig.

Jane holds a Bachelor of Fine Art from the UTAS School of Art and a Bachelor of Teaching from the University of Melbourne. She is a founding member of State of Flux Workshop, Hobart, Tasmania, and currently teaches Visual Art and Jewellery Design.
