Specialist in metalwork for interior design and architecture, with a background in mechanical engineering, sculpture, and historic buildings. Founded Opus-Metallum.com in 2020 to offer a single access point for designers to access specialists across a diverse range of metalworking techniques, and to encourage collaboration and cooperation between metalwork disciplines which often operate in "silos".
Also active - but not prolific - sculptor with international museum and private collection presence (China, Europe, USA). My work revolves around narrative and storytelling, but not just stories in literary sense: the stories my works convey are primarily those of the craftsmen, and then of the users who interact with the pieces, and they are told through the arc of creation and degradation.
These stories are overlaid onto ancient legends, implied through the portrayal of mythical creatures. More to be found at peterlinnett.com.
