After a small amount of confusion, I eventually got the above piece to Griffith, sent the day before the show opened. I had sent another piece (below) two weeks prior to this, as this was the piece that the gallery had asked for. Turns out, when they opened it, they found out that it wasn’t the piece they wanted.
When you get a phone call from the gallery the day before the show opens, the idea that you’ve sent the wrong piece is not the first thing to cross your mind…
The National Contemporary Jewellery Award shows until the 3rd of October at Griffith Regional Art Gallery, 167 Banna Ave, Griffith, NSW.
