Upcoming show

Nope, not mine. The loverly Claire McArdle is having a show (which, incidentally, opens on my birthday – thanks for the party Claire!) of new works.

Going by the photo it looks as though there’s been a bit of a shift in her work, so I’m really looking forward to having a good gander at it. From her media release:

Public Displays of Attention

10-21 May, Opening 10th May 5.30-7.30pm
First Site Gallery, 360 Swanston Street, Melbourne

This attention grabbing jewellery creates a visual voice which cries out joyously to the many strangers we encounter everyday during city life. Colossal and colourful, these pieces all carry an urge to be connected to others. They create a shared experience for both the wearer and the viewer as they become part of one of the many Public Displays of Attention.
