Artist Statement

Forged holes that stretch and diminish speak about effort and change. Seams cut apart, and then reassembled are left with a raised line that is reminiscent of stitching, a visible repair. These pieces are about fragility and fallibility, and how essential careful attention is to creating and preserving connection.

Artist bio:
Cappy Counard is a maker who creates jewelry and sculptural objects that reflect her curiosity about relationships. She is intrigued by the reactions and interactions that transpire between people. By exploring the notions of work, care, storytelling and repair, she aims to record our capacity for evolution and connection.

Cappy graduated with an MFA from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale in 1999 and a BS in Art from the University of Wisconsin – Madison in 1992. She lives in Edinboro, Pennsylvania where she has been a Professor of Metals and Jewelry at Edinboro University (now PennWest Edinboro) for twenty-five years. Teaching is as integral to her practice as making. The acts of building community and sharing knowledge are the foundation of her practice and contribute greatly to the concepts in her work.
