Imperfect perfection: Still Life 2019 | Sterling silver and vitreous enamel | Photo: Michelle Bowden, Visuall Photography
​Imperfect perfection is a still life of 3 bowls that emerged from 3 existing enamelled dishes made about 20 years ago and loitering in my studio. The enamel was removed and the dishes reformed and re-imagined through the raising process.
During this process I allowed the metal to take a certain amount of control over the outcome, creating an Imperfect perfection in form. Where the hammer took me during the making process, as well as the addition of new vitreous enamelling on the interior of two of the bowls seeks to showcase the singular nature of each work within the still life.
These works were selected Profile '19 Awards, the 6th JMGANSW Biennial Curated Award Exhibition for Jewellery, Objects and Metalsmithing at the Australian Design Centre, Darlinghurst, NSW,  2019.
