Exhibition - Sarah Wilbanks and Aliyah Gold Jewelry

We recently became aware of a jewelry exhibition currently showing at Facèré Jewelry Art Gallery:
"Signs of Life 2009" which runs from October 7 - October 28, 2009.

"Signs of Life" is a contemporary jewelry art show paired with a companion jewelry art catalog/literary journal. The show features work by nine artists and the catalog/literary journal pairs these jewelry artists with nine writers in a unique publication that celebrates both literature and jewelry art. 

JEWELRY ARTISTS in this exhibition include: Diane Falkenhagen, Aliyah Gold, Laurie J. Hall, Julia Harrison, Thomas Hill, Trudee Hill, Rika Mouw, Gail Rappa, and Sarah Wilbanks.

Examples of the jewelry include --

This sweet little number is called "Bird's Nest" created by Sarah Wilbanks - a brooch in sterling silver, image transfer on polymer clay, drusy quartz, and felted wool.

This eye-popping example of the jewelry art on view is a necklace created by Aliyah Gold entitled,
"Swarm"  - a necklace in leather, bronze, and stainless steel.

 


Hey, if you get a chance to get over to Facèré Jewelry Art Gallery, let us know your thoughts and impressions of the jewelry on view.  Happy viewing!
