Mark Vaarwerk portrait

“my brisbane based practice focuses on making wearable pieces for sale and exhibition throughout australia. generally this jewellery consists of a combination of simple techniques, everyday throwaway plastics and precious metal.”

“studying at enmore offered a good, practical mix of both technical and conceptual aspects of the craft, while allowing room for us to breathe, explore and discover our own interests. A challenging, rewarding, really useful experience.”

“keep an open mind about your studies, but expect to work hard. Use all the machines.”
