About this work
Over the past four decades, Su san Cohn has produced a vast body of jewellery, tableware and installation work, from the handmade and one-off to the machine-made and mass-produced. Her craft and design work demonstrates a mastery of aluminium fabrication, as shown in this bracelet. Taking inspiration from urbanism, pop culture and technology, she uses the body to make links between objects and everyday life. Cohn is the first Australian to design for the Italian homewares company Alessi.
