To mark e.g.etal’s 25th anniversary, a collection of e.g.etal artists have each created a piece of jewellery that exists at the intersection of defiance and desire. These are beautiful, covetable objects that also challenge the wearer and push at the boundaries of what jewellery can be.
“True hope is swift and flies on Swallow’s wings. Kings it makes gods, and meaner creatures kings.” – William Shakespeare, Richard III. Both defiance and desire create hope for something new – and this hope is in turn, transformative. Hope can change who we are. Inspired by Shakespeare’s Richard III, these earrings feature five components which move independently, creating energy within the piece. Each of the five components features an abstract swallow representation adored with embossed natural imagery.
Pieces from this collection will be shipped at the conclusion of the exhibition (from 23rd November, 2023)
