Artist Made -Sculpture, Images & Objects

Art by Barbara Nanshe 

I am interested in the human condition and the environment broadly. My subject matter varies within feminist principles and the environment; body Image, ritual, land forms; plant shapes; personal stories and experiences; wild and domestic animals.

Exhibition Collection - WILD HOME

Wild Home 2025

A 28-Piece Handmade Collection of Jewellery 2025-  While stocks last -
  • Back to Back Galleries - Cooks Hill 
  • February 14 - March 2, 2025.     

This collection speaks to my deep connection with domestic and wild animals.
I grew up in a small town in Tasmania, of creeks and open grassy spaces, with bushes and trees; sunny days and crisp mornings. My wanderings enabled a lifetime of observing and interacting with animals. My home was an endless procession of both wild and domesticated creatures, facilitated by my father. I learnt to listen, watch and handle many animals. I had a curious, fearless relationship with spiders from the age of 3 and am now often lost in the world of tiny creatures. My encounters have had an immeasurable and profound influence on who I am today.
Making this collection has allowed me to re-visit my memories, deriving yet more joy from my experiences.

I hope when you view my newest adornment collection that my stories resonate and you find the perfect piece to celebrate your own stories.

Love Rings

Handmade rings are solid recycled metals of Sterling Silver & gold.Natural precious and semi precious stones.  Barbara's preference is to set Australian locally cut gemstones; vintage & ethically sourced. some stones are cut by Barbara.  

"My ring making process is one of transforming wax to recycled gold and silver; setting stones.  Every design is different, with its own unique beauty. I also construct from recycled plate, rod and bar.
