Collect_ive 'A New Generation of British Art Jewellers'

[Farrah Al-Dujaili]

Eight contemporary British jewellers have come together to exhibit at the 11^th edition of the prestigious SIERAAD International Jewellery Art Fair in Amsterdam from 1^st – 4^th November. Each with our own style, voice and specialism, Collect_ive aims to promote British art jewellery to a wider audience. We are Farrah Al-Dujaili, Laura Bradshaw-Heap, Melanie Codarin, Katie Lees, Yu-Ping Lin, Grace Page, Natalie Smith and Anna Wales.

Together we use a variety of mediums and subjects within our practices to question assumptions about jewellery itself and to raise questions and communicate thoughts about the world around us. From transient jewellery created in sugar evocative of apocalyptic landscapes, to visually powerful felt and silver jewellery pieces that are pleasingly tactile, to tongue-in-cheek miracle cures saving the world one piece of jewellery at a time!
