Firefall and waterfall

I've been loving blending colours from the anodised aluminium saucepan lid mountain (see previous post) to create these warm and cool cascading earrings.  I am working towards achieving zero waste within my practice and one of the areas I have been looking at is the rim of the saucepan lid, which is the part that these little beauties used to belong to.  It fascinates me to think that these rims used to seal in the juices of some delectable meal, some maybe for years and years. 

If only they could talk.

 They have their own stories and meanings embedded within them, its up to you to continue the story.  See them at 'Striking a Chord'  Fox Creek cellar door, Malpas Road Willunga South Australia, 10-5 everyday.

Sustainability Strikes a Chord

Sunset 

The sunset Series.  Created using Sustainable Design principles

The sunset. Possibly the most poignant part of the day.  Its a time to shift gears and those gears are different for everyone.  For me, the time just before sunset is the perfect time to get out and connect with the natural world. These pieces are designed to recognise and celebrate this change of viewpoint, pace, colour and light.  The materials included in these works are powder-coated aluminium, anodised aluminium and recycled sterling silver. The Sunset series has travelled with me to numerous locales around the world and can now be seen in 'Striking a Chord' at the Fox Creek Cellar door from 2nd of July through to the 30th of August 2013.

Striking a Chord at Fox Creek Cellar Door

SALA is on again!! 

Striking a Chord.... How do three artists from such distinct disciplines put a show together? We struck a chord!! Our aptly titled exhibition combines the musical tone of paint by Shelley Hughes, sculptural installations of Bronze and wood by Westley Tully and the upcycled kineticism of jewellery and object by myself. With movement, metaphor and melody our works will sit together at the Fox Creek Cellar door until the end of August.  For a bit of a head start on SALA squizz, head on down to Fox Creek Cellar door on Malpas Road Willunga South Australia between 10-5 Monday to Sunday.
