Re-Citing exhibition | Renee Ugazio

An experimental project that applies processes of jewellery making to an urban environment.

Exhibition Friday 10 April to Sunday 3 May 2015

Opening: Thursday 9 April, 6 - 8 pm
Artist talks: Saturday 18 April, 2.30 pm

Re-citing is an experimental project that applies processes of jewellery making to an urban environment. In particular, the use of ferric oxide – used in gold and silver smithing as both a resisting and polishing agent – suggests both decay and renewal; a continuous and interconnected life cycle. In Re-citing it is primarily the actions of polishing and its trace that are exploited to investigate sites in Merri-bek. Ugazio uses aspects of traditional jewelling practice to examine the materiality of the urban environment, exploring the potential relationships between these sites and processes.
