The annual event in St Just at Cape Cornwall School continues until 5 pm Friday this week. The show raises fund for Cancer Research UK & includes over 200 exhibitors of art & craft work all made within a 30 mile radius of the area. I am exhibiting metalwork & artwork at the exhibition.
My latest work 'Metallic texture' is a combination of unique copper & brass designs. Each individual cut out piece has a one-off surface. Inspired by Barbara Hepworth & Troika pottery the framed assemblages have a 'retro' feel.
I thought I would document my design process for a new collection of jewellery which has been several years in the making. Creating the 'master' patterns from metal which will be reproduced using the lost wax casting process.
The oak project or 'Lightening Dancer' is a project I worked on with artist James Eddy at the Lost Gardens of Heligan. This involved the creation of over 500 copper oak leaves which are now on permanent display in the Stewards House within the garden.
Less than 2 weeks until my next event & the last one for quite some time! Plans for 2023 ahead but looking forward to a busy Makers Christmas Fair in Penryn Nov 4 to 6 with lots of other lovely makers.
Time for a little catch up after a full on summer in St Ives! Hopefully time to create again over the next few weeks so the website can be restocked with work...
'Harbour lights' is our next event happening at the St Ives Arts Club at the end of this month. Alison Dupernex will be joining myself with her colourful textiles.
