栗原さん、竹内さん、ご卒業おめでとうございます！
Makers Manifold is a Sydney based collective formed in 2005. They have exhibited together a number of times throughout the last five years. At each new exhibition they invite a few extra special guests to exhibit as part of the group which means the dynamics are always changing. The seven founding members studied jewellery and object design at Sydney College of the Arts and have gone on to explore varied career paths.
Loren Keir’s recent work stems from the idea that chaos has a relationship with confusion. Her artwork is confused. The pieces began as a sheet of silver that was then transformed into the shape of an animal. But the animal has its own idea – it wants to be something else, another kind of animal. Through this process the artwork becomes confused. It is unsure of its identity, is it a sheet of silver? is it a seahorse? or an elephant? is it an artwork? or is it a brooch? Maybe it is all of the above?
Sheree Lee – “I have long been interested in memory- the unstable, the illusory and the real. My interest is in the realms of dreams, mutations and subconscious memories that haunt the mind’s equilibrium.”
Sheree’s work is a purposeful reconstruction of the past as a set of stories, rather than the ‘truth’ of a life. To put a life into a narrative or to make stories out of personal experience implies a creative ‘staging of memory’ in a way that resonates with the hallucinatory character of much of her work.
Rosary Coloma’s photographic series is based upon her observations of the Philippines as a first generation Australian and second generation Filipino. She aims to capture her interpretations of chaos as it displays itself within the Philippine urban landscape.
Chloe Waddell’s series of brooches are taken from images of the Mandelbrot set. Each brooch is a segment of the larger pattern and when separated from the whole, they resemble miniature landscapes. The Mandelbrot set is a geometric shape produced by the graphical representation of a Chaotic system.
Mirna Harri has created a series of sculptural works exploring chaos theory. She began each piece by putting together a number of parts beginning from the same simple shape. With each slight adjustment in size, colour and angle, she has created a multitude of variations of form, each one unique.
Jemma Bree Dickson – “For years I’ve been investigating the connections between individuals and trying to discover what this thing called love is.
Love is chaos. It is the lack of reason while being the reason, it is our patterns of behaviour, while the behaviour seems to have no sense”
In her recent body of work, ‘the voodoo of you’, Jemma has drawn a link between the charmed objects of voodoo and jewellery as the charmed objects of love.
Jessica Page’s work is an exploration of colour. The colour acts like a skin concealing the precious silver below, these pieces assist the viewer in reassessing their own perceptions of what is valuable.
Natalie Sharpe – “We all seem to follow some sort of order in our lives, and this can become quite chaotic at times”
Using pen and ink on ceramic tile, Natalie has created a collection of hand drawn images of illustration, typography and patterns, representing just some of this chaos.
Amber Reid’s work investigates the way we perceive colours. The colours of her work appear controlled yet chaotic through the contrasting of colours in a strict geometric arrangement.
「光を受けて輝く様が宝石にも例えられる七宝。この技術は古代より世界各地で使われ、日本でも古くから建築や家具、道具類と、様々なものを彩ってきました。
明治期、その卓越した技術と感性は海外で絶賛され、一躍日本趣味流行の立役者となります。
本展では、七宝の優美な意匠を、並河靖之をはじめとした名工の作品でご覧いただくほか、技法・製作工程を通じ、七宝が綿密な技術の集大成であることを、改めてご紹介します。」
