Marcos Guzman
Australia
Marcos Guzman is a contemporary jeweller based in Melbourne, Victoria. He completed a Bachelor of Fine Art specialising in Gold and Silversmithing at RMIT in 2010, and subsequently completed the Honours Gold and Silversmithing course through RMIT’s Object Based Practice program in 2013.
Marcos Guzman is a contemporary jeweller who transforms industrial materials through hand-making techniques and slow processes, revealing unexpected preciousness in everyday materials. His introspective and contemplative practice uses jewellery-making as a means for remembering, exploring and escaping, and is often catalysed by stories, dialogues and conversations.
His work is held in the permanent collection of the Art Gallery of Western Australia and various private collections.
