EXPO ‘Melinda Young: The World Is a Pearl’ – Studio 20/17, Waterloo (Australia) – 5-23 Mar 2013

Melinda Young: The World Is a Pearl  – Studio 20/17 (Waterloo, Australia)

the world is a pearl continues Melinda Young’s fascination with the quirks of her immediate surroundings; the things and people that inhabit them. For this exhibition she has sifted through collections of domestic items and the materials in her studio – old ideas are revived, new jewellery has been born from the detritus of old work and discarded objects. The results are an intimate collection of works that are a meditation on the rhythms, repetitions and colours of daily life in the midst of Sydney’s urban sprawl.
