AboutJanise Crow
Janise Crow is a mixed media artist whose work spans sculptural vessels, contemporary sculpture, and wearable art jewelry. Blending traditional metalsmithing with diverse materials—ranging from copper and natural elements to found or reclaimed fragments—her work explores transformation, memory, and the quiet beauty revealed through time. Each piece reflects a dialogue between material and meaning, where marks of the hand, traces of history, and organic forms converge.
Through both intimate jewelry and contemplative sculptural forms, Janise invites viewers to pause and consider the connections between resilience, renewal, and identity. Her work resonates with those who find beauty in imperfection and strength in the process of becoming—offering visual reminders that our stories, like her materials, are shaped, refined, and made whole through transformation.
In addition to her studio collections, Crow welcomes commissioned work, collaborating with clients to create personal, story-rich pieces that honor memory, mark milestones, and reflect individual journeys.
