Zsuzsi Morrison Jewellery
Jewellery ShowcaseUsing traditional enamelling techniques Zsuzsi’s jewellery is imbued with a joyful exuberance. The jewel-like intensity achieved in her colour palette is re-invented through this ancient process. The exquisite detailing on even the reverse sides of her pieces is testimony to the meticulous care in the hand making and finishing of every piece. Poised somewhere between jewellery, sculpture and paintings, Zsuzsi’s work could be described as modern day talismans or amulets, each piece an individual work of art.

The surfaces on which her work is placed reverberate with shadows of human things. Her objects are made at the edge of her consciousness, in the place where fiction and truth collide.Traces is an exhibition in The Language of Clay series, a Mission Gallery National Touring initiative curated by Ceri Jones

In the past few years, 3D printing has gained tremendous momentum. Starting with plastic, the range of products has been extended to anything from metal ship's propellers to concrete houses. The latest project using concrete 3D printing is one by ETH Zürich, in which nine different columns were printed, without the use of formwork.
