EXPO ‘Cloud Nylon: The Jewellery of Nora Fok’ – Gallery Four, Touchstones Rochdale (UK) – 17 Dec. 2011–10 Mars 2012

Cloud Nylon: The Jewellery of Nora Fok

Nora Fok retrospective exhibition of her work
Nora Fok is one of Britain’s leading contemporary jewellers, who works with quite ordinary materials to create extraordinary results.
The processes Nora uses – knitting, weaving, crocheting and knotting – transform linear nylon microfilament into simple and complex structures, inspired by her fascination with the natural world and the mathematical models that underpin it.
Much of her work can be classified as jewellery, but she pushes the definition to its limits making larger bodywear and pieces which stand independently as sculpture.

A Harley Gallery touring exhibition directed by Brochocka Baynes and supported by the Arts Council.
