Lisa Monahan

Lisa Monahan is a metalsmith who has been designing jewelry and sculptural metal works for the past 18 years. Her work is modern and is highly influenced by her 20+ year career as an architect. Lisa will consider working with almost anything; her art gives new life to ordinary, industrial and vintage materials. She typically works with silver, gold-filled, oxidized silver, copper, brass, precious and semi-precious stones and pearls. Lisa’s work is available in select galleries and museum shops, including the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, as well as on her websites: www.lisamonahan.com and www.switchgearkit.com

Lisa is inventor/designer of Switch Gear™ Jewelry Sets, a patent-pending, interchangeable jewelry wardrobe in a small travel case. Switch Gear™ sets make 100s of earring combinations and are unique in design-it-yourself jewelry concepts.
