Hello, dear circus friends!

Suzanne Beautyman

Suzanne Beautyman received her BA in Economics in 2002 from Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota. After three years in marketing, she moved to Italy to pursue a passion for metalsmithing, and the jewelry arts in particular. In Florence she studied under such renowned jewelry artists as Manfred Bischoff and Peter Skubic at Alchimia Contemporary Jewellery School.

In 2008 she returned to the United States to pursue an MFA under the German jewelry artist Iris Eichenberg at Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, MI. Since graduating in May of 2010, Suzanne has spent two months in Berlin, Germany as the 2010 recipient of the Daimler Emerging Artist Award. This fall she returns to Alchimia to begin her new role as Assistant Director and teacher for students of their First and Second Year courses.

Elin Ryd

My name is Elin Ryd, soon middle aged mother of two, living in

Gothenburg, Sweden.

I have my degree from Alchimia Contemporary Jewellery School

in Italy.

I´m continuously in conflict with Mr Jewelry. I get married and

divorced many times a year…

I have tried to run away but I always fall back again. We live in a

sort of love and hate relationship, which is quite exciting!

I support myself as a jewelry designer with my own brand, but I

find it important to be able to work noncommercial as well.

I look forward to see what will come out of this cooperation!

See you in the circus tent!!

Poly Nikolopoulou

My work is a way of communicate with the people and also with myself...

When I am making a piece, is very important the process, the feeling that

I am experimenting at the moment and all the energy that those are

reflecting in each object; the mistake of the moment, is something that I

enjoy and I support from my work.

I like the idea of making something that when is finished can give me

different images, ideas, forms and the complete definition of my concept.

I prefer to use hard materials like silver, playing with the hammer and with

the fire obtaining as an outcome shapes and colors that make them alive...

sometimes in an abstract way or another in figurative.
