Gemma is an Artist from Scotland (b. 1992), graduated from the Glasgow Caledonian University (2014) and moved to Eindhoven, Netherlands in 2015. She has gotten fulfilment in letting go of the shackles set by her former studies in product design and crossing in to collectible design. This has manifested by exploring traditional craft materials and using them in unconventional ways in order to sculpt design art objects influenced by the natural and scientific world.
