Australian tour dates

The HAT Project: Here and There is fresh off the plane from the UK and has landed at the JamFactory Gallery! This UK/Australian show has just shown in 5 UK venues, with great success, and will be showing in 4 major Australian cities before October 2005 with JamFactory being first cab off the rank. This travelling show features 17 jewellers all showing work made during their time of international residency. Thrown into a completely new environment and culture, each artist was forced to live with the differences and familiarities that comes with travelling overseas in English speaking countries. The show demonstrates the impact of such a change on their everyday life and in turn, their work.

Australian jewellers
Christian Hall, Julie Blyfield, Alina Jay, Sheridan Kennedy, Marian Hosking, Vicki Mason, Catherine Truman and Mark Vaarwerk
UK jewellers
Cynthia Cousens, Ashi Marwaha, Junko Mori, Liz Rattigan, Mah Rana, Vaneeta Seecharran, Cynthia Cousens, Claire Norcross, Marcus Steel and Annabet Wyndham.
