Melissa Borrell has been designing and fabricating her own line of jewelry since 1999. She is currently a graduate student at Rhode Island School of Design and a Resident Artist though August 2004. “Functional art breaks the barrier that separates the viewer and the object. I combine simple shapes and subtle textures into sculptures that interact with the body.”
