Wyatt Nestor-Pasicznyk is a metalsmith, jeweler and enamelist currently living and working in rural NJ. In 2023, he worked as a coordinator at Peters Valley School of Craft managing their Fine Metals studio. This experience has since lead him to teach workshops at craft schools around the country. His work focuses on rural iconography and story-telling translated into wearable art. Wyatt creates most of his work in the form of champlevé enameled belt buckles; a type of body adornment tied to both rural identity and masculinity. He grew up in a small rural town and has worked with horses his entire life. He continues to work on several farms focusing on horsemanship and livestock management. Another of his passions is agriculture and the perseverance of farmers over generations – as the land, climate, and people change. The culture of farming and agriculture heavily impact the work he makes. He graduated with a BFA from Tyler School Art in their Metals Jewelry CAD CAM Program in 2021.
