A silversmith whose work bridges architectural rigour and sculptural expression, Rodger Drew trained at the Glasgow School of Art, where the strong design traditions of the institution shaped his approach to form, structure and narrative in metal.
Initially trained in graphic design and illustration, Drew transitioned into silver with a focus on large-scale presentation pieces and architectural commissions.
His practice often explores Scottish iconography and industrial heritage, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern design sensibilities. Working largely in sterling silver and pewter, Drew's work is underpinned by clarity of line and bold, symbolic motifs, often incorporating engraved text and narrative detail.
He has exhibited widely across the UK, including at the Goldsmiths’ Hall in London, and has undertaken numerous high-profile civic commissions.
