Visions Exhibition


The Visions exhibition will tour the UK with the exhibition 20:20 in 2017.

20:20 features work from the 20 most prominant current and former members of the ACJ  showing one piece from circa 1997 and one more recent piece.

Visions is a snapshot of the best work from contemporary jewellers, selected by the Panel: Kath Libbert, John Moore, Peter Taylor & Rebecca van Rooijen.

My works in the exhibition continue my interest in working with found incomplete/broken objects. I work to ‘repair’ them and explore their narrative potential. 
Diving Bell features a fancy ceramic handle that I dug up.
​Blue Lobster Claw features a ceramic claw gifted by Rebecca Ilett
Neck Brace features a porcelain head gifted by Rebecca Ilett and a glass stopper found by me.
