Biography
| Tanya is a contemporary jeweller based in Swansea, South Wales. Having moved from Serbia after completing a degree in Business studies, Tanya had the opportunity to develop what was a part-time business into a full-time career in jewellery, with emphasis on innovative and creative design.
Working with finest quality delicate leather in many beautiful shades, and influenced by floral, natural and abstract motifs, Tanya produces a wide range of necklaces, earrings, bracelets, corsages, chokers as well as bridal accessories. Her technique is unusual and innovative and involves a complex process. After selecting the best leather skin and colour, Tanya cuts and bond together up to eleven layers into the required shape. When dry, the layered shape is cut into thin slices. The softness of the leather allows Tanya to stretch the slices into shapes which are then glued together. Silver wires and beads are then added as embellishments. Each piece is extremely labour intensive. This exiting and innovative work is produced in bright, natural and pastel colours. Tanya Igic has been exhibiting in many galleries in Wales, England, Scotland, Republic of Ireland, Spain, Holland and recently USA and Austria. |
