From a Press Release
Compared to a Summer’s Day – conjures up a natural world of inherent beauty. On view today through August 28th, this international group exhibition showcases the work of six jewelry artists who look to the natural world for inspiration. The title of the exhibition is a playful twist on Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18, an ode to his beloved:
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,And summer’s lease hath all too short a date……
One-of-a-kind pieces, including delicate floral enamel earrings, porcelain brooches with cicadas and butterflies, hand-pierced steel necklaces with painted botanical images, golden butterflies…… all come together to form this summer fantasy.
Compared to a Summer’s Day features the work of Nicolette Absil, Julie Decubber, Mielle Harvey, Judith Hoetker, Sarah Hood, and Helen Shirk – and includes select work from Reinstein|Ross, Goldsmiths and Gaetano Pesce.
The Gallery is open everyday, and the exhibition will run from June 23rd through August 28th.
