Arethusa – a nymph who was transformed into a fountain. Means “quick water.”
The Arethusa Bangle, featuring a fused overlap join, three coin charms with fused wire and decorative granules, is handmade in matte sterling silver by Melbourne artist Vikki Kassioras as part of her exhibition, ASIMINA.
ASIMINA is a special exhibition of silver jewellery by Vikki Kassioras, offering a retrospective exploration of her creative practice which now spans over two decades.
This exhibition reinterprets and reimagines select pieces from Vikki’s past collections, providing a foundation for this body of work. Through the lens of hindsight, combined with an evolved creative process, Vikki introduces a fresh perspective whilst maintaining the integrity of her original designs.
Pieces from this collection will be shipped at the conclusion of the exhibition (from 31 October, 2024).
