Born in Charleston, SC, Abbi Marie graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2021 with a BFA in Jewelry. Her work comes from a love of both the natural world and that of fantasy, and a desire to depict both in a wearable form. She envisions menageries of fantastical creatures that are perched on the body and little wearable realms captured in metal. Each piece is designed with a narrative in mind; some pieces are standalone stories, while others are chapters in a longer tale.
