One peek inside Silverfish Studios tells you that Patrice is a collector…. A nice word for ‘packrat!” She is sure that given the right time and circumstance, anything can become part of an interesting creation; maybe the object itself, or maybe it will inspire a design.

Her jewellery has an ancient feel, as if lost or buried, or passed along through centuries.  Her new collages are collections of things made and found, and placed behind mica windows. “Bolts” won Best of Show at the Lambeth Gallery of Miniatures in 2015.
