Time Out


Spent a little time out in Melbourne recently. The occasion was a birthday party but of course I got to squeeze in some gallery visits.

It's great to remember that there are places where members of the general population value contemporary jewellery to such a level that a number of jewellery-specific galleries are able to thrive.

Wandering around the streets and alley ways of the city, I oohed and ahhed at both e.g.etal galleries, then moved onto Gallery Funaki where I was dazzled by the work of students from the Akademie der Bildenden Künste. There was more but they'll have to wait till next time because it got cold so we snuggled in at the Horse Bazaar to soak up the atmosphere, oh, and have a drink too!
