Forthcoming exhibition: Suspended In Green


 Exhibition runs:  15 August - 20 September

Private Views:
Thursday 14 August 6 - 8pm
Saturday 15 August 12 - 2pm


Thirty-three contemporary jewellers from all over the world explore the colour Green.

Green: it's just a colour, yet it can also stand for so much more. It’s the colour of money, of envy and of energy; it can stand for ethical products, the environment, symbolise fertility and nature.  This exhibition will be a juxtaposition of jewellers, themes and styles, all suspended from the gallery’s ceiling, which will invite the viewer to engage and interact with the work. 

In addition, to compliment the unique exhibition pieces each participant has created a lower priced collection of jewellery – offering an interesting way to begin building a contemporary Jewellery collection.

Suspended In Green is an international touring exhibition curated by Laura Bradshaw-Heap and selected by the jury, David Clarke and Mah Rana.
