FIGMENT - Opening Night!



















































































Wowzers!

What an hot night to be squeezed into an underground gallery filled with people and 20 light projectors. The room buzzed and swooned under the heat, lights and beautiful work on show at Eg.Etal.

Figment has been co-curated by Eg.Etal director Emma Goodsir and Fleur Watson, from creative studio, Something Together, in collaboration with French graphic designer AnneLaure Cavigneaux from March Studio. Through an ongoing process of meetings between artists and curators, a bespoke installation concept was born, with the final jewellery pieces taking residence on a collection of odd vintage overhead projectors, contained in a purpose built 'room' within a room, lighting the work from bellow as well as above. The resulting effect was the creation of a completely immersive environment of whimsical jewellery, light, shadow and mystery.

The various narratives taking place amongst the works all loosely revolve around personal concepts of fantasy, mythology and memory. Each of the seven artists invited to participate in Figment chose to tell their own story creating a highly personal and diverse body of fascinating work.

I highly recommend you take the time to visit this exhibition, allowing yourself to immerse yourself in the glow of light, narratives and detailed execution of 26 enchanting pieces of work.

FIGMENT, officially opened thursday 18th March and will continue, Monday - Saturday's till the 31st March.

Midmouse Runway.















































































































Last Friday night i attended Penthouse Mouse's 'Midmouse' runway show for L'Oreal Fashion Week, as some of my pieces were being used. Even though i rarely make work with gender in mind, i was surprised to find the stylist had put my necklaces on boys, but i think they looked great! My work was mostly paired up with local label 'Vanguard'. Here are some pics from the show sourced from Fashionising.com. I'm not sure who took the pics, or who to contact regarding crediting these shots, i think it might be a fellow called Allan, though im really not sure, but check out Fashionising's link to find out more.

Interview on the Eg.Etal Blog









Artist interview

This week the e.g.etal blog features an interview with Natalia Milosz-Piekarska. In this interview with Steph, Natalia talks about her approach to jewellery, how it became a career and where she draws her inspiration from.

Natalia has been showing with e.g.etal for almost four years now. We have loved watching her work evolve and grow from strength to strength. Last year we invited her to be part of our FIGMENT exhibition in March. And again, along with the six other artists, Natalia has delighted us with her response.
