There are milestones in life worth celebrating, and 2019 marks twenty years since Melbourne-based jewellery artists Linda Hughes, Sim Luttin and Katrina Tyler met, underground, in the RMIT University, Melbourne Gold and Silversmithing studio. Two decades on, their studio practices are thriving, and they remain close friends and metalsmithing confidants.

In September 2019, the trio will present three installations of jewellery and objects, across three spaces in the foyer of Sofitel Melbourne on Collins. Each artist will develop new work that expands on their existing areas of enquiry, while also considering the exhibition site, as well as how their work will interact with each other in the space.

“Remaining close friends, since 1999 we’ve each built national and international reputations and while acknowledging our work is diverse, we are united in creating intimate handmade objects that are abundant in creative integrity and dynamism.”
Linda, Sim & Katrina

(ABOUT THE ARTISTS)
​

Linda Hughes is an artist who makes jewellery and sculptural objects. Her passion for the graphic motif of the stripe and Renaissance art seem diametrically opposed. However, when she traced the history of the stripe, she was rewarded by a convergence of these subjects. The outcomes of her research were two jewellery groups which explored the interplay of their sources. She lives and works in Melbourne and has a BA, Fine Art (Honours) MA, Fine Art and PhD from RMIT University. Linda has participated in numerous exhibitions in Australia and internationally and has work in both public and private collections including the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra, Art Gallery of South Australia, Powerhouse Museum, Sydney, Les Arts Decoratifs (The Louvre), Paris France. She is currently represented by Galerie Biró, Munich, Galerie Ra, Amsterdam, Charon Kransen Arts, New York and Studio Ingot, Melbourne.

Sim Luttin is an arts professional, producer, and maker with 20 years experience as a contemporary jeweller, craftsperson, and artist.  While having always been influenced by nature in her work, Sim's current interest is in exploring yearlong time-based projects that respond to the everyday to create extensive conceptual bodies of work. She is currently represented by Pieces of Eight, Melbourne and Charon Kransen Arts, New York.

Katrina Tyler is an arts professional and maker with over 20 years experience as a contemporary art jeweller. Her practice spans jewellery, sculpture and public art, with a predominant focus on the materials and techniques of gold and metalsmithing. After completing a Bachelor, and Master of Fine Art in Gold and Silversmithing at RMIT, Katrina was awarded an Artstart Grant which enabled her to pursue public art in China and undertake further experience with welding and larger scale metalwork. Katrina is currently represented by Studio Ingot, Melbourne.
