Working across jewellery, installation and sculpture, she experiments with diverse materials and forms to create objects that carry visceral and symbolic meaning. Her practice is informed by socio-economic, geo-political and environmental concerns, reflecting on the tensions between fragility, resilience and transformation. Through wearable and spatial works, Fiona explores how objects can hold memory, provoke emotional response and invite dialogue between the personal and collective experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note*\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis piece is part of an exhibition, so when purchased please know that it will ship after the exhibition finishes on 27th September 2026.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Studio Melt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52214357295402,"sku":"EX24","price":2150.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0249\/7065\/files\/Finoa.2.jpg?v=1788150398","url":"https:\/\/studiomelt.com.au\/products\/unhinged-necklace-by-fiona-meller","provider":"Studio Melt","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
