Artists working in contemporary jewellery and crafts use a wide range of methods for presenting their works. Use some of the example we looked at in class, from Object Space, and say how you think their presentation helps create meaning and helps the audience understanding the ideas/conceptual side of the work.
The Object Space on Ponsonby Road, one of the leading gallery spaces supporting contemporary jewellery and crafts practice. Mary involved the establishment of Object Space for 3 years from start to open. Being an organized contemporary object artist, she had very purposely contributed into it for the need of the social community, the artist, objects and the audience.
An art work placing in the space of a gallery is related to the relationship of the art work, the space, gallery and the viewer. How to place the work in the space to present the artist ideas and help the viewer understanding the concept and the power from the art. To build up the atmosphere from the work and space to fascinate the viewer and create the imagination by the audience.

Material : Various materials
Lisa Walker-Unwearable
All the small art works with various materials –unwearable, putting on the colorful prints. Is it a maze? What is the game ? It’s a provocation for unwearable of jewelleries. It’s an exciting and innovative installation for the object and space. Being unwearable, each small object putting on individual print with different bright color looks more confident on its location. It’s not related to the function of wearing on the body. They bring to mind jewellery experiments which liberate the common concept to the jewellery. And draw the view’s attention to the object itself.
Numbers one to Eleven
Maker: Tony Bond
Material : Ceramic, wood, enamel paint, installation works.
Tony is a Christchurch sculptor, Tony Bond works occasionally with ceramics. He describes Formuchculae as, “decorative objects for the twenty-first century. The pots as a everyday life homeware put on the wall with the function of decoration. Make the focus on the decoration instead of pot’s’ usual function. Put all stuff together and they look similar but can see the differences between them.
I found it’s very interesting to know different way for the installation and the concept about arts presentation from different artists in the space of gallery. It’s a further thinking about the installation related the meaning of artwork itself. That’s why Mary needed spent 6 hours to do to put the layout of tiny objects in the cabinet in the exhibition of “stuff” in fingers gallery 2001.
