Remade-Reloved


‘Remade-Reloved’ is a group exhibition curated by Bridget Kennedy that opens next week at her studio/gallery in North Sydney.

And for those of you not in the know, it will be one of the last shows at the Bridget Kennedy Project Space, as Bridget is going to be closing down the gallery next March, after 5 years on Ridge St and over 14 years in galleries – starting with the amazing Studio 20/17 with Melanie Ihnen in Waterloo (postcode 2017).

So while we can hold off until next year for BK’s valedictory speech, next week’s exhibition opening will surely mark the beginning of the celebrations. I won’t be able to make it myself (I did show there this year, finally visiting the space in person, multiple times!) so from the sidelines I want to I encourage all who are in the neighbourhood to get along and celebrate all that she’s done for the industry.

1 – 24 December 2022
Celebration and Xmas Cheer – Thursday 1st December, 6 – 8pm

Artists include: Simon Cottrell, Anna Davern, Jill Hermans, Vicki Mason, Sean O’Connell, Claire McArdle, Inari Kiuru, Melissa Cameron, Mel Young, Erin Keys, Linda Blair, Regina Krawets, Pennie Jagiello, Szilvia Gyorgy, Jenny Fahey and Bridget Kennedy

And since it’s an exhibition of work made from pre-loved jewellery, the images below are a little preview of what I was playing with:

soon-to-be-recycled ring: copper, semiprecious stones, glass beads. age unknown
soon-to-be-recycled neckpiece; various powder-coated and plated metals. age unknown
