Tom Binns at KabiriThree Tiered Necklace - Orange £675.00 By Tom BinnsView details Asymmetrical Crystal Bracelet - Clear £540.00 By Tom BinnsView details | Born in Belfast,
Ireland, Tom Binns
graduated from Middlesex Polytechnic in 1981 with a BA in jewellery design,
obtaining all the necessary skills to make real pieces.
With the influence of the Dada movement, Tom went on his own
revolutionary way creating his collection of ‘object trouves.’ Tom is the pioneer of design alchemy where
anything becomes possible. He can find something and making it an icon.
He may treat diamonds with remarkable negligence and then
hold a piece of beach glass with great nobility. His poetic sense, combined with his anarchic
wit and caustic humor has been the essence of his spirit. ‘You are not dealing
with reason, you are dealing with attitude.’ His art is feminine,
anti-conformist and elegant.
It was his collaboration with Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McClaren,
starting with The Punk Couture that created the perfect marriage for Tom’s Dada
embrace. Tom Binns is in his element as
adornment has become the focus of fashion.
‘Jewelry is always a treasure, and though it may not be made
of gold and diamonds, it should still have that sentiment.’ |
