About

In 2002 Perrone graduated from Alberta College of Art and Design with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Jewellery and Metals. Exhibiting widely across Canada, the USA and Europe, Perrone’s work has been featured in several publications. She is a recipient of the Governor General of Canada’s Academic Medal and the Alberta College of Art and Design Alumni Legacy Award.
