Farrah Al-Dujaili selected to exhibit at Talente 2011

[Farrah Al-Dujaili]

Jewellery designer maker Farrah Al-Dujaili is one of ninety-five designer makers to be selected to exhibit at Talente at the International Trade Fair in Munich in March 2011.
‘I hope to establish myself as a jeweller through well-made, innovative pieces and being part of an established exhibition like Talente is a great platform to do just that. I feel very privileged to be exhibiting’.


Farrah is based in Birmingham working independently as a designer maker, having recently finished an MA in Jewellery, Silversmithing and Related Products at the School of Jewellery, Birmingham.

Farrah is influenced by her style of drawing, utilising a hybrid mix of forms that are organic and playful. She explains ‘The pieces are created through an intuitive mix of drawing and making that crosses over and intertwines’. She applies a mix of drawing materials;pencil, crayons and watercolours to a surface of enamel paint adding ‘This gives an interesting material link to my design methodology, enforcing the dialogue between drawing and making’.


Talente will run from March 16th until March 22nd 2011.

Copper, enamel paint, pencil, watercolour, watercolour pencil, pastel.
