Melanie Dankowicz

With cut metal and paper, Melanie strives to create striking and complex impressions, uniting traditional motifs with contemporary themes, balancing the flow of lines with the depth of space. She enjoys integrating Hebrew text in design, bringing out the beauty of the letters and the essence of their message

Compositions include tableware, Judaica, intricate sculptures and framed art. In metal, her pieces are designed to be viewed from all angles. Once lasercut, they are brushed, glass-blasted, or anodized to a smooth finish to achieve functionality, utility, and beauty.

The Spring Seder Plate, cut from stainless steel, won the NICHE Award in the category of Judaica. This piece and others from the collection are sold in museum shops and fine arts galleries across the country. All of Melanie's work is crafted in the USA.
