25.01.2022 MOVEMENT AND MOTION | ONLINE EXHIBITION Biografi Design Kylie Keates, Solar Orbit, 2020, Ring is size P1/2 with a 4mm ring shank and height above finger approx. 18mm to top of orb, recycled sterling silver, sterling silver patterned wire, and lemon quartz. Artwork price: $284... Born from the inspiration of needing a little bit of sunshine in everything, especially this year, Solar Orbit has Scandi-inspired lines with its effortless curves surrounding the finger and sweeping upwards to hug a transparent orb of lemon quartz. The orb can be rotated around its horizontal access. For flare and fun, there is a patterned band sitting freely beneath the orb. This circle moves with the body but can also be moved manually whether that be mindlessly or mindfully as desired or required. #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

21.01.2022 Hi all, this is a call out to beginners or intermediate jewellers who who might have some time on their hands and want to get in a studio for some experience and a little $$. My housemate, Jemica, has over stretched herself in the run up to Christmas and needs some help doing prep. Think, cutting, filing sanding, texturing for earrings. If you have a day or a couple of half days in the next week or two she would love to hear from you. Jemica Ostrofski of Meekz or send me a message and can connect you. Michelle

20.01.2022 SOUND ON! | ONLINE EXHIBITION Beth vonBra (vonBrae), Not Hollow, 2020, 30mm x 22mm, recycled sterling silver, brass. Artwork price: nfs Not hollow was not an intention. It wasnt a mistake either. It just...happened. I was trying to keep it simple, dont complicate things. And then just before closing up this ring forever, an idea made its home in my head and I put that idea in the ring and now its not hollow. @bethvonbrae... #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

19.01.2022 SOUND ON! | ONLINE EXHIBITION Katherine Grocott (@katherinegrocott), In Memoriam. Necklace: 2018, 13.5 x 2.5 x 10 cm, sterling silver, X-ray, silk. Cuff: 2019, 1.5 x 18 x 15 cm, sterling silver, X-Ray. $990 for set My grandfather passed away a little while ago. The necklace and cuff are a memorial, testament and celebration of his life. Made from one of the last x-rays taken while he was ill, it is representative of seeing the inner person, the real man. When brushed, the nec...klace tendrils make a unique sound and have a distinctive feel. It becomes a visceral, tactile and auditory reminder of who he was. When the cuff catches the side of the body while walking, it prompts memories of our time together. The sterling silver is included as a homage to his lifelong passion for metal fabrication and the workshop which was a source of instruction and creativity for me. The repetition of saw pierced cuts reflects the precision that was a requirement of his work as a toolmaker. The necklace is designed to look like it is floating on the body, without a highly visible hanging mechanism. The cuff is a firm fit, another reminder of his closeness to his grandchildren. By wearing these pieces, Pa is not forgotten. @katherinegrocott #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

19.01.2022 MOVEMENT AND MOTION | ONLINE EXHIBITION Sinead Buckney, Moth to a Flame, 2020, 5.5cm x 4cm, Recycled sterling silver and Sunstone. Artwork price: $420... This piece started with inspiration from a piece I made over 10 years ago- an Art Deco inspired Fan shaped hair piece. I wanted to recreate it but with the ability for the graduated petals to be movable. This gives the piece many different ways to be worn. I decided to add a pear Sunstone to the central fixed petal. This added to the feel of the piece being a beautiful moth, opening and closing its wings. #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

19.01.2022 SOUND ON | TINA-LEA HORTON Tina-Lea Hortonn (@tlhinspired), Fae Bells, 2020, 8cm (h) x 3.8(w) x 2cm(d), Sterling Silver & Amethyst Beads. Artwork price: NFS Inspiration for this piece was easy to find within the beautiful Watercast bell shapes that form so naturally. To give this piece sound I combined 3 Sterling Silver watercast bell shapes connected with wire and separated with sterling silver beads. To complete the bell I added faceted amethyst bead representing the tra...ditional bell clapper. The sound produced from the bells was a delicate ring, reminding me of the fae stories told to me as a child. Fae are of course magical creatures and it seemed only right their sound would sit under the night sky of a Amethyst Merkaba bead. Above the Merkaba I connected a cascading piece of Cuttlebone Cast silver this for me represents the cascading magick from the night sky. Created from 100% Recycled Silver. @tlhinspired #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

13.01.2022 CLASPED | ONLINE EXHIBITION Kate Hunter Kate Hunter Daisy Clasp 2020 5.5 cms x 6 cms... Brass and stainless steel ARTWORK: NFS Winter is mild in Cairns and I find myself draping fabric around me for warmth, be it a scarf, sarong or heavier cotton, rather than a jacket or a jumper. In an ode to my ancestors I wanted to make a clasp, not just a brooch, to convert my wrap into a cloak. The Daisy Clasp does just that. Hand fabricated in brass with stainless steel pins. #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

12.01.2022 SOUND ON! | ONLINE EXHIBITION Kylie Keates (@BiografiDesign), Dancing Discs, 2020, Ring is size Q with overall dimensions of 2.6cm wide and 3.5cm high, Sterling Silver. Artwork price: Not for sale Dancing Discs is a ring made of sterling silver. The ring shank is a double, heavy band with extensions like goal posts above the ring. Twelve hammer textured, sterling silver discs are suspended on sterling silver wire riveted into place between the uprights. The shape of the wir...e adds to the interplay and therefore the sound of the discs, albeit still a gentle jingle. @BiografiDesign #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

12.01.2022 SOUND ON! | ONLINE EXHIBITION Nellie Peoples (@nelliepeoplesstudio), Nell Bell, 2020, 6 x 5 x 3cm, reclaimed steel sign, sterling silver, silk cord, Image: Nellie Peoples. Artwork Price $125 The inspiration for this piece came from my childhood nickname Nell Bell. Even today there are certain family friends who call me by this name, which I am very fond of. I decided to take this chance to make a (Nell) bell. ... After rummaging around my studio space, tapping different materials to see what kind of sound is produced, I settled on old steel signs made by my grandfather. I absolutely love using these old red and white signs, especially when the original message is obstructed, and the red letters become patterns instead of words. To retain this painted finish, I decided to focus on folding the bell form and using cold joining techniques to attach the bells clapper. I had such fun playing with the size and shape of the bells, which make their own personal bell tolls. Through this making process I discovered there is a difference between making a sound object and an object with an attractive sound. @nellie_peoples #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

In January 2020 the Australian media began running constant PSAs about hand washing, and public bathrooms were spontaneously growing graffiti telling you to wash your hands. ... In April 2020 I celebrated my birthday in lockdown. When you move the hands on the front, this brooch sings Happy Birthday to you twice, for 20 seconds, so that you can properly wash your hands. #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

09.01.2022 SOUND ON! | ONLINE EXHIBITION Mari Hirata (Mari Hirata), The Whistler, 2020, L 100mm, W: 12mm, natural wood, brass. Artwork price: NFS I found this piece of wood near the beach around 10 years go. Im not sure which tree it belongs to, but Ive always loved its long and coned claw-like shape and even after moving addresses a couple of times since then, Ive found myself keeping it close for the pure love of its form.... The idea of the bird caller came to me from another little gadget that was given to me during a primary school camping trip. I dont have this particular caller anymore, but remember this very plain and simple looking object made the sweetest chirping/whistling sound and have wondered on occasion if it was possible to recreate it. About 30 years fast forward with a lot of trial and error to get the right tension between the right wood & right metal - I have again a bird whistler to call my own. @mari.hirata.artist #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

09.01.2022 SOUND ON! | ONLINE EXHIBITION Kate Hunter Holbourne Is. Sounds 2020 7cms l x 4cms w... Copper, Brass and leather Artwork price:$145 A treasured sailing memory for me is the sound of coral chinkling as every little wave makes the shore. Holbourne Island National Park is 37 kms east of Bowen, and is where I heard this sound whilst snorkelling for the first time, squeezing my husbands hand with joy, as we slid through the sparkling water to this delightfully delicate sound surrounded by colourful fishes, corals and giant clams. Hollow formed in copper and brass these organic tampered metal shapes re-create that chinkling coral sound when worn and played with by the wearer. The oxidised pendant is reminiscent of something you may find beach combing and hangs from an adjustable leather necklace.

08.01.2022 Movement And Motion | Online Exhibition (Apologies to @Katherine Grocott for missing her entry!) Katherine Grocott Slider Pendants 2019... 5 x 35 x .5 cm Titanium, Sterling Silver, Machine Embroidery Thread $390 This series of five pendants were made to emphasise the fun and joy of kinetic movement. Inspired from a three dimensional card making technique, two small titanium disks slide along a hand sawn channel. The discs have been anodized to five specific colours on the titanium spectrum and matched with embroidery sewing thread hand spun into cord. Sterling silver rivets and clasps complete the pendant. As the discs slide they make a satisfying clinking sound when they reach their end and need to turn around for their return journey! #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

08.01.2022 CLASPED | ONLINE EXHIBITION Katherine Grocott Katherine Grocott Red Bead Necklet 2018... 13 x 14 x 1 cm Sterling Silver, Recycled Red Glass Beads ARTWORK PRICE: NFS I made this necklet to match a ring I had designed in a Kinetic workshop. I wanted to keep the red beads as a feature, but echo the lines and feel of the ring. The hanging mechanism needed to be simple and uncomplicated. The clasp was the interesting design problem to be solved. While riveting the beads in place was easy, figuring out an unobtrusive clasp that, hopefully, would be practically invisible, took far more time. The solution was a saw pierced keyhole, combined with wire finished with a flat disk to secure it in place. A second disk was added to the opposite side for balance. #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

08.01.2022 CLASPED | ONLINE EXHIBITION Kylie Keates Biografi Design, Green Muse, 2020, 65 cm, sterling silver, sterling silver cable, sterling silver beads, aventurine beads. Artwork price: not for sale... The textures, shapes, and hues of the gorgeous green goodness that springs from the earth are mesmerizing and inspiring to me. It was only a matter of time before they worked their way into my studio. The Green Muse necklace is a collection of polished aventurine beads on sterling silver cable and featured amongst a tumble of sterling silver loops/links of varied sizes, thicknesses and textures. The necklace is secured with a handmade box clasp, flanked by more glossy, green aventurine. Whether clasping and unclasping the necklace, or feeling the smooth coolness of the aventurine, or the movement of the rings in the chain components, interacting with this piece is meditative. The clasp started as a flat sheet of sterling silver before being scored, folded, and soldered into that classic box shape. The insert or tongue for the box clasp functions securely because another piece of metal has been tensioned through being work-hardened. The process of making like this is addictive. #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

08.01.2022 SOUND ON! | ONLINE EXHIBITION Helen Moriarty (@HelenMoriarty) , Coffee Time, 4cm x 4cm, recycled sterling silver, recycled glass, found stainless steel. Artwork price: $75.00 I choose to make earpieces for this SOUND ON challenge as they can hang in space and move freely with the body of the wearer, responding to a shake of the head, or the rhythm of the body when walking. The sounds are very soft and will be heard by the wearer as they are so close to the ears.... These earrings are designed to make two different sounds as they are worn. One a bell like sound as the glass moves away and then back to strike the steel plate. The other is a stuttering like a stick running along a chain wire fence. This is made when the glass moves across the perforated surface of the steel. @helenmjewellery #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

Inspired by the gentle breeze caressing the leaves of the tall Eucalyptus tree located within a stones throw from my studio door. The sounds, smells and sensations of stepping out into our beautiful backyard, never fails to relax me inspiring my imagination. This pair of earrings features broom cast studs which have been ball riveted to form folded leaves. This is a loose rivet to allow for movement of the leaf and the stunning Peridot teardrop bead nestled between the folds of the leaves. Our lifestyles have changed so much recently due to COVID and for me it has bought into focus how lucky I am to be able to have nature only a few feet from my studio in Thornlands. #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

The shapes began in lines on paper, to cut out paper shapes, outlines in wire and a formed pod. I was trying to capture a garden fairy tinkle in the soun...d of this pendant. It tinkles as you go about your day, a constant reminder of the botanic origins of this piece. #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland

Artwork price: NFS... A large cabochon Rainbow moonstone becomes the feature part of the clasp in this necklace. The Moonstone goes through the loop, lining up where the small triangles on the reverse meet. You then twist the two sides apart to lock the clasp together. The two parts of the clasp form the completed design of the piece. The piece can be worn in a couple of different ways if desired, such as a lariat or with the wire detail on different angles, changing the design. The open design on the back allows the Moonstone to be seen on the reverse also.

To give this piece sound I combined 3 Sterling Silver watercast bell shapes connected with wire and separated with sterling silver beads. To complete the bell I added faceted amethyst bead representing the ...traditional bell clapper. The sound produced from the bells was a delicate ring, reminding me of the fae stories told to me as a child. Fae are of course magical creatures and it seemed only right their sound would sit under the night sky of a Amethyst Merkaba bead. Above the Merkaba I connected a cascading piece of Cuttlebone Cast silver this for me represents the cascading magick from the night sky. Created from 100% Recycled Silver. @tlhinspired #jmgqonline #jmgq #jmga_qld #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #jewellery #jewelry #schmuck #queensland #australianjewellery #handmadeinauatralia #artsqueensland
