ABOUT

Janice Derrick was born on the Caribbean island of Trinidad. At sixteen she emigrated to the UK where her love of all things creative led to her pursuing a B.A. in Silversmithing, Jewellery and Allied Crafts at the prestigious Sir John Cass faculty at London Guildhall University, graduating in 1996. The following year Janice received a Clerkenwell Award from the Clerkenwell Green Association to set up her studio/workshop near the heart of London’s jewellery quarter, Hatton Garden. Janice’s work is inspired by clean line, movement, geometry and the structure of manmade and natural forms. Her work has been sold through galleries and museum shops internationally and she has exhibited in Trinidad, Germany, France, Japan, across the UK and the US. Her work has also been featured in books and many magazine publications worldwide. In 2005, Janice returned to Trinidad where she continues to develop her jewellery and silversmithing practice.
