Artist Designer
Dorothy Erickson is a Western Australian artist jeweller and designer based in Perth who has exhibited internationally since 1979. Her jewellery is in private collections, museums and art galleries worldwide. Most of her early work reflected her Australian surroundings, using the colours and formations of the landscape as inspiration. Newer pieces often have kinetic qualities which are activated by the moving body while more recent work features multi-coloured stones used as a painter’s palette in the Klimt and Wildflower collections. Dorothy welcomes commissions.
She has written regularly for publications since 1977, has several books to her name and, also has design, curatorial and heritage consultancies.
