Melanie Feerst Studio

Quirky and provocative with an industrial edge, my work is inspired by dark humor, Japanese design and the medical or fetishized body. Product lines ANGST and STRUCTURE are developed with a sculptural aesthetic and passion for process and materials. Antique porcelain doll parts and medical hardware are transformed into angst-ridden adornments cast in resin. I use 3D laser printing, which provides the means to design custom structural findings to support fused glass.
