Medusa Collection by Vicky Forrester
Reclaiming the power of the Snake Goddess, the Medusa collection combines leather and sterling silver into alluring coils that reflect the movement of the snake. Sharp points, hooks, rattling bone-like beads all combine to create edgy, powerful and seductive jewellery that can be worn in numerous ways on the body. These snaking coils can be twisted and manipulated to create unlimited sculptural and wearable forms that wrap around the hand, arm, neck, waist…all waiting to play with you.
Design and Make a Sterling Silver Ring – fabulous rings by weekend students at Flux
This weekend we had a lovely group of highly motivated individuals, mostly with no previous experience in making, who all went smiling home with rattling pockets and jingling fingers – proud makers of some really fine pieces of jewellery!
2011 review – a year at Flux
There is much for me to be thankful for, everything to be pleased about…
And here, 3 years after its inception, is a shining example of Flux Studios at its best, achieving all its objectives:
Flux students are inspired to learn more and explore the possibilities of becoming professionals, and become members…
Graduates become members to develop collections and business skills to promote and sell their work….
Members are supported to explore their market through open studios and exhibitions…
Members are given opportunities to develop teaching skills…
Members are challenged to speak about their work through interactions with students…
Students are surrounded by a massive creative community…
Members support each other by sharing workshop skills, business skills and connections…
Members become successful and fly away to set up their own studio…
But always, I hope, they remain Fluxy at heart!
Fab family workshop fun at Flux
I’m endlessly surprised by how much is achieved by the participants – complete beginners, young and old – in such a short time, and by the range and quality of creativity that unfolds in those 3 hours…..Elsewhere, hammers and punches were used to make interesting textures, and beautiful patterns were pressed using the rolling mill. A particular favourite for me was Laura’s landscape.. she worked out a superb solution for a plinth.
