‘Adornment - The Art of Wearing’

Round Rock Arts Council

September 14 - November 28, 2023

‘Adornment - The Art of Wearing’ - What does what we wear say about who we are or who we want to be? Round Rock Arts invited artists to celebrate and examine how adornment is part of our daily lives, history, culture, theatre, festivals, and self-expression.

‘My History Is My Treasure’ - Acrylic on natural lightning whelk with chrysocolla, agate, moonstone, crystal and 14/20 GF findings. A one-of-a-kind wearable art piece inspired by the Japanese art of Kintsugi that repairs the broken with gold. The brokenness is not hidden or glossed over, but rather embraced and highlighted, adding value while celebrating the idea that it is stronger and more beautiful because of the journey. This art necklace is part of a ‘Treasure’ series of KintsugiGrace® shells on semi-precious stone necklaces.
