Above and Below | Exhibition

These are a selection of the works exhibited at Graydon Gallery on April 20 - May 1, 2016 as part of Above and Below. The complete collection included wall mounted sculptures alongside rings, pendants, earrings and brooches made in precious metals.

Inspired by present day neuroscience imaging and microscopic details first presented by renowned microscopist and artist Ernst Haeckel. These pieces are both a celebration and reflection of the past 10 years I've dedicated to improving my understanding of microscopy and how to use glowing proteins from the sea to reconstruct the forms of the living.

Each piece is made in solid sterling silver or gold and make use of my continuing exploration in surface colouration techniques. Many are complimented by carefully set precious stones.
