Aether & Alchemy
The magical process of creating jewellery sees wax and metal transformed into beautiful wearable sculptures. Aether and Alchemy explores the five classical elements (earth, wind, fire, water, and space) all of which hold a place within processes of making jewellery. Featuring pieces by Comune, Une, Eloise Falkiner, A’sika Jewellery, SGS Jewellery, Bonus Prize, Halo & Hurt, Jacqueline Nguyen Jewellery, Sacreflux, Benjamin Rose and Serpent Rouge, this exhibition brings each element to life.
Through a variety of jewellery making techniques spanning from lost wax and sand-casting to traditional gold-smithing and contemporary modes of creating from CAD models, the pieces explore the elements both through their method of creation as well as in the aesthetics and themes behind the pieces themselves. All im the show will be beautifully tied together with a botanical installation by Claire Jackett.
Join us at the opening for Aether & Alchemy on the 24th of May at Comune Gallery
