Inspiration often comes from the most unlikely sources, and from the most unlikely places. Our evolving project explores the ever-changing nature of the creative process and the constant relationship all makers have with their own individual process.
For Radiant Pavilion 2017 we will be taking to the streets daily, seeking out obliging surfaces to play host to our magnetic jewellery moments. In addition each day we will leave a piece of jewellery, made by one of us, to be discovered. It is hoped that the continuing stories of many of these moments and pieces will be captured online. For more information on how to get involved and track our project please visit us on Instagram @moments_of_jewelleryness and Facebook Moments of Jewelleryness.
