Makers of Traditional Change

For Sydney Craft Week 2020, selected New Zealand jewellery artists from the Handshake Project exhibit work that connects to the context of traditional jewellery.

These artists respond to widely known jewellery traditions, e.g. how and why jewellery exists or is worn. This will be unwrapped in multiple directions, rendering new exiting opportunities for contemporary jewellery.

During the making process, these artists uncover the thinking behind their reflective and deconstructed processes as blog posts on the Handshake Project website.
Each artist statement touches on how transformation of the traditional is unravelled.
