website in progress...

Hello! My name is Nellie Peoples. I am a Design + Maker. I create contemporary jewellery and small objects that tell stories of beloved people, particular places and special moments.

 

I am a one woman show. As well as making my own designs, I also put the hat of graphic designer, social media coordinator and now website creator. I am working hard on the back end to bring you a brand new website with my collection of objects, as well as insights to how things are made.

About

My name is Nellie Peoples

I am based in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, where I create contemporary jewellery and small objects that tell stories of beloved people, particular places and special moments. Currently there is particular focus on the register place and the act of making to explore one’s place. The focus of my practice is to allow space for viewers to gaze at my objects and be transported to a specific place, and to be reminded that they are connected to the ground on which they stand and the world at large.

 

I have a Bachelor of Design Arts with First Class Honours from the Australian National University (ANU), School of Art (2013). I have a history in Architecture and Visual Anthropology, which informs her creative practice. I have exhibited in Australia, New Zealand and further afield. Several stand out achievements includes exhibiting at Talente, Internationalen Handwerkmesse, Germany (2012); exhibited in Profile: Contemporary Jewellery Award, Australia Design Centre, Sydney Australia (2022); and her recent solo exhibition ‘Drift Lines’ at Masterworks Gallery, Auckland Aotearoa New Zealand (2024). A highlight have been a part of the Handshake Project, Handshake8, Aotearoa New Zealand (2023-2024).
