Joplin Arts Fest welcomes back Kristin Girard for our 10th Anniversary show at the Cornell Complex. Kristin’s pieces make ample use of the natural world around her, while always pushing artistic experimentation. Find her handmade, electroformed jewelry on the Leggett & Platt Green on September 20 & 21!
 
“Electroforming is an electrochemical process that encases original elements in copper layers. The process accommodates diverse elements, ranging from organic materials like leaves and flowers to inorganic materials like semiprecious stones. The resulting pieces are then fashioned into jewelry using various techniques, including forging, knotting, and chain-making, tailored to the desired style.”
