The body of works of final year jewellery students will be on public display in a new exhibition at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Wagga Wagga. The exhibition titled, Meraki: To put yourself into your work with soul, creativity and love will be held at the HR Gallop Gallery at the School of Communication and Creative Industries at CSU in Wagga Wagga. It will feature the art of three Bachelor of Arts (Jewellery) students and one Bachelor of Arts (Visual and Performing Arts) (Honours) student. The students are due to graduate during a ceremony in December. “This exhibition is significant for students, as it demonstrates their knowledge and understanding of how jewellery can be used as a powerful tool for creating visual narratives that address social, cultural and political issues and how, once worn, these messages can be disseminated more widely beyond the Gallery walls,” said jewellery lecturer Ms Sabine Pagan. The exhibition will be opened from 6pm on Friday 1 November by Arts and Design Curator at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney, Ms Eva Czernis-Ryl. The Gallery is also hosting an international touring exhibition of contemporary narrative jewellery, Transplantation: A sense of place and culture. Both exhibitions run from Thursday 31 October to Friday 22 November.
