The Morvoren Ring in yellow gold, diamond and sapphire is a handmade piece by Georgie Brooks, created for e.g.etal’s exhibition Site Specific.
“‘Morvoren Ring’ derives from the Cornish mor, meaning ‘sea’ and moren, ‘Maiden’ taking on the meaning of ‘mermaid’. My sense of place derives from my ancestors in Cornwall. Their journey and their connections to their original homelands I revisit again and again in my work. The colours of the stones are referential of the ocean.”
Site Specific, presented as part of Radiant Pavilion Naarm/Melbourne Contemporary Jewellery and Object Biennial, is an exhibition that pays homage to the relationship between the interior and exterior of our being, and the inability to separate oneself from their environment.
Pieces from this collection will be shipped at the conclusion of the exhibition (from 3 October, 2024).
