Maria Hanson<\/a>, Reader in Metalwork and Jewellery at Sheffield Hallam University, is one of 50 jewellers taking part in JUNK: Rubbish to Gold<\/em><\/a>, a playful exploration of community economies (exchange, giving, bartering, gathering, earning, harvesting); putting on display the process of creating the \u2018work of art\u2019. The performance is being live-streamed on screens in the mac Birmingham<\/a> and the Museum of the Jewellery Quarter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Reusing is often perceived as the up-cycling of one object to another, from unwanted to desired, consumer leftovers turned into new desirable luxury consumables to buy. This reuse is the cornerstone of jewellery as a discipline, with materials shifting form to adapt to the newest fashion and trend. Yet the re-imagining of one object into another is infinitely more complex than it is often portrayed.<\/p>\n

Partnering charities will supply JUNK jewellery on account. Local businesses will provide tools and equipment. The School of Jewellery will provide a venue. Performers well-established and newly emerged will come to \u2018gift\u2019 skills in a performance which will be live-streamed. The resulting pieces will be exhibited and sold via a silent auction.<\/p>\n

More information is available on the project website here<\/a>, and on Facebook here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
