28 members from over 10 countries will take part in the Precious Collective's Launch Exhibition in Plymouth, 16th to 28th April 2019
Born in November 2017 with a membership of over 120 members from 30 countries worldwide it is a very eclectic and diverse group of makers which now boasts over 4 thousand Instagram followers.
Previously solely social media based; Ocean Studios will now host the physical launch of the collective.
28 selected members will present what promises to be a very exciting and possibly challenging Art-Jewellery exhibition.
If precious means 'of high cost or worth: not to be treated carelessly' then the Precious Collective is where these concepts are questioned - it is where the idiosyncratic, irregular ideas live; where to encounter the unexpected.
Strange materials mixed with strange minds fuse into joyous imaginative work expressing individual ideas of what precious could mean. The enduring 'norm' of gold and diamonds is challenged by this groups witty interpretation of body adornment, process and materials.
The collective aims to inspire and showcase work to both those within the jewellery profession and also bring new ways of working to new audiences.
