CONTAINMENT – UNCONTAINED
Containment – Uncontained is the third collaboration between Handshake (Aotearoa NZ) and Dialogue Collective (UK). For Radiant Pavilion 2021 we’re teaming with TempContemp (AU) to present jewellery provoked by ideas of containment and restricted freedom.
The project’s trajectory to date embodies the challenges of working across borders and within communities during a global pandemic.
While we continue in our attempts to nail jelly to the wall, it is obvious that COVID has disrupted traditional ways of presenting jewellery. The resultant uncertainty is presenting us with the challenge and opportunity to explore the notion of what a jewellery ‘exhibition’ is and what happens when jewellery is ‘uncontained’.
