There are a couple of competitions I’ve found recently; The St George Art Awards in Hurstville, NSW which I have entered, and another from the US titled the Artspace Contemporary Fine Craft National Exhibition, which I’m not sure I’ll get to by the deadline. I’m still busy finishing up my entries for Schmuck and my Craft Victoria application…
But in finding out about the Hurstville St George Art Awards, I stumbled upon this; some hair jewellery in their permanent collection. While I don’t think I could wear it (not because I’m that choosy – I routinely wear a coaster, but for the significance of wearing the hair of someone I don’t know), I think it’s quite beautiful.
