EXHIBITIONS

We aim to hold special exhibitions 3-4 times a year, each with a different theme or showcasing particular designers. We feature nationally and internationally acclaimed jewellery designers, sometimes alongside new graduate designers, so giving a wide range of ideas and expertise in jewellery design.

	Su Kroker Fragile, magical and of floral elegance best descibes Su's work.Her jewellery pieces are fairytale and sculptural objects, using silver, gold, coral, pearls and gems. Sometimes it is art, sometimes it is wearable and sometimes both.
	Mikaela Lyons Mikaela's work is an eclectic jungle of colour and romantically macabre imagery. She takes inspiration from fantasy and photographs she's taken in various countries and places, which she then uses to create illustrations and make into jewellery.
	Lizzie Pearce Lizzie utilises her background in a variety of making traditions to explore the boundries between art and craft. Her felt jewellery collection combines her passion for traditional craft techniques and materials with her interest in fairytale, folklore and her appreciation of the beauty of nature.
	Cat Priem Cat creates a humorous fantasy world rich in paradox, drawing from fairytales, architecture, nature and life events for inspiration. Each piece is handmade, often ornately decorated and where cute details turn out to be rather subversive.
	Pauline Edie Pauline describes herself as 'the Harrold Skimpole of the jewellery world, in a state of arrested development.' She uses childhood stories and illustrations to incite her work. Working mainly in porcelain and silver, she aims to display the curious communicative nature of handmade forms.
	Gwen Hosker Gwen intends to make jewellery that leaves questions to be asked and stories to uncover. Both the aesthetic and social significance of the handwritten word inspire her work. Using found samples of handwriting dating back to 1910, she transfers their qualities onto new surfaces using laser etching.
	Emily Jo Gibbs Emily Jo finds beauty in tiny little pieces of moss, grass and peeling bark. She tries to describe something that is extremely beautiful, very fragile and short-lived, using a palette of colour and texture. Her fascination lies with the contrasts between materials; the texture and shimmer of the beaten metal against the soft matt colours of the silk and wool.
	Alina Jessipovich As a child Alina loved to play with 'Polly Pocket' toys; intrigued by the tiny world in her hand. This fascination led her to develop jewellery that is a landscape of it's own; something to play with, look at and imagine things about, right on your finger.
