Moniek Schrijer
YEAR OF RESIDENCY
May - July 2021
Moniek Schrijer is a Contemporary Jewellery Artist from Te Whanganui-a-Tara who holds a Bachelor of Applied Arts (2012) and a Post-Graduate Diploma from Whitireia New Zealand’s Facility of Art (2013). Since graduating, Schrijer has developed a strong exhibition history and her work has been a part of significant national and international exhibitions. Schrijer’s practice is characterised by the skillful adaptation and alteration of materials collected largely from second hand and recycled sources using a variety of traditional and unconventional jewellery techniques that allow for her pieces to move between the jewel and the object, the flat plane and the 3rd dimension.
