These brooches were first exhibited in the PIN 9 exhibition at ANCA Gallery in Dickson, Canberra, ACT from 9 to 19 August 2023. They were again exhibited as part of the Mini Series Art Prize exhibition at the Corner Store Gallery in Orange, New South Wales from 25 October to 5 November 2023.
They are made of fine and sterling silver and measure 5 x 5 x 0.5cm.
Below is a description of the series:
My practice explores the materiality of fine silver sheet metal. In my production work, I manipulate this metal to suggest the movement and folds of fabric.
This series extends my exploration of the materiality of sheet metal. I have ‘crushed’ sheet metal, imbuing simple shapes with complexity and texture, and framed these shapes with a classic twisted wire.
