Maker, Wearer, Viewer

With Bury Art Museum

How can a sense of a bygone craft be captured through making? What are the new stories waiting to be told inspired from the hair work archive at Bury Art Museum? What will Art Jewellery look like in connection to the archive? How can we challenge a context driven approach towards maker, wearer, viewer?

Visiting the hair work archive at Bury Art Museum students have responded to the collection of 10 specific hair works forming a project that expands creative interpretations from the hair works and vocalizes awareness for the collection’s importance.
