Tobi Sznajderman
Goldsmith
In 1985, Tobi Sznajderman
received a BFA in Metalsmithing from the School for American Craftsmen,
Rochester Institute of Technology, in Rochester, NY. She studied with many
professors at RIT. Near and dear to her heart always is Hans Christensen,
who died during her first year there. She also studied with Gary Griffin,
Leonard Urso and Mark Stanitz. Urso was particularly influential in her
early work, which dealt with the human form.
Artist's Statement:
Precious metals are my palette, the hammer my paintbrush. I
strive to create works that bring joy to the wearer, to the body and to the
eye. I am intrigued by the effect of contrasting textures: by the play of
light on a burnished edge, the mark of a hammer blow, or the upset of a
straight line. The work must be more than a technical accomplishment. It
must have rhythm and it must tell a story to be truly complete.
We hope you enjoy
