A Christmas Landscape

About

As the seasons continue to change and the nights are drawing in, Sara Preisler Gallery brings a brand new exhibition of outstanding work from award winning designer Karin Sheldon, perfectly suited for the festive season upon us.

This year we introduce 'A Christmas Landscape', beautiful collections of jewellery with new technique and forms, bringing with each piece a sense of strength and fluidity. An exploration of the contrasts between a rural and urban aesthetic, Karin's work pulls inspiration from both. The Collections are bound together by a response to the visual stimulus of daily life and the beyond. With motivation taken from the industrial town where Karin lives, each abstract piece is embedded with images of inspiration, creating a narrative throughout and experimenting with new surfaces and textures. Using silver and 24ct gold vermeil in a variety of methods, from her 'graffiti' style etched works with a strength and connection to an urban aesthetic, to a more rural identity within her landscape inspired 'Nature Walk' collection. Karin uses the ancient Korean gilding technique of Keum-Bo and all pieces are finished to the highest quality.

This exhibition will run until the beginning of January 2019.
