Justine Valentine is an artist and maker based in Eugene, Oregon. She works across mediums including metalsmithing, photography, and other handmade forms, exploring the relationship between craft, story, and place.
Wanderfolk is her ever-evolving collection of handcrafted objects. It's inspired by time spent in nature, years of travel, and the quiet rhythm of everyday life. Shaped by the materials gathered along the way, each piece honors the place it comes from, responding to the resources and inspiration it offers.
Pieces emerge through play and experimentation, guided by instinct and by listening to the materials themselves. The result is a fluid body of work made with care and intention. Shaped by place, material, and process, it’s rooted in the belief that making is a way to stay connected to the world around us.
