Belinda Latimer is a metalsmith and artist based in St Austell, Cornwall. She originally trained in metalwork at university, but life led her down other creative paths for many years. Returning to metal almost thirty years later felt like coming home—a familiar rhythm, a way of making that connects her straight back to herself.
Moving to Cornwall six years ago opened everything up. The light there shifted her work almost immediately, making it brighter, more expressive, and more playful, shaped by the colours, energy and changing moods of the coast.
Belinda cuts, hammers, textures and layers each piece by hand, allowing the materials to guide the process until the work feels alive and full of character. No two pieces are ever the same; each carries its own marks, rhythms and personality.
If one of her pieces finds its way to a new owner, Belinda hopes it brings colour, character and a small lift to the day—something expressive, a little unexpected, and full of the places that have shaped her.
