I have works in two exhibitions starting Thursday and Friday of this week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re in Melbourne have a great time at #RadPav, I’ll see you at the next one for sure. If you’re in Toowoomba this is my first Contemporary Wearables for a few years (you have to be in Australia to apply). It’s great to be back!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MasterMakers has an invite-only opening on Thursday, with guest speaker Virginia Trioli (!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contemporary Wearables ’19 is open to all by RSVP, details on the invitation below. National treasure (and my mentor) Marian Hosking will be at the opening as the judge of the awards. If only I weren’t headed to Canberra the next day. I know the collection of jewellery there is very impressive, I hope to get to see it one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MasterMakers <\/strong>at RMIT Gallery:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RMIT Gallery, Building 16, 344 Swanston Street, Melbourne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the 1970s, leading Australian and international Gold and Silversmithing artists have delivered and participated in masterclasses in the RMIT School of Art which has had a profound impact on the training of the craft in Australia.

This major exhibition explores the masterclass legacy, showcasing both recent works of the visiting \u2018master makers\u2019 and work produced at the master classes, as well as recording the cultural, artistic and technical shift in contemporary jewellery and object.\u00a0
