Re-Framed jewellery exhibition
(RE)FRAMED jewellery is art exhibition held at the Grow Box Cafe, Krowji, Cornwall this February. Curated by the ACJ Cornwall. I created a large 'Limpet adornment' neck-piece incorporating a collection of found Cornish limpet shells combined with a large metal 'limpet' form. The frame also included shells & created an interesting backdrop for the piece.
