	Otago Artists Clive Arlidge Heke and Kawiti at Maiki Hill Kororareka Acrylic and metal on board Georg Beer Pair of Bangles A pair of opposites, holding the balance, one containing a part of the other; harmony and contrast. Georg Beer Medals - An Immigrants Tale Medals are traditionally male decoration for identity - achievement - rank etc. The brooches are my way of dealing with my own identity and achievements. Rainer Beneke Kandinsky Brooch Forged, fused and constructed; a miniature sculpture inspired by Vassily Kandinsky's painting "In the Black Square". Rainer Beneke Window on my Heart Forged and constructed brooch. Hamish Campbell Hunted / Hunter Series - Hunting Fish A central process of all living things is to acquire food. Many organisms both hunt and are themselves hunted, which shapes both their behaviour and morphology. This piece of work refers to this hunted/hunter relationship. Madeleine Child Sunflower Tulip Vase Made at the European Ceramic work centre,The Netherlands, 1996. Piece made by throwing a 2 metre diameter 'ring' which is then 'wrought' into shape. Glazed earthenware. David Holmes Pacific Necklace In this design I have been exploring the play of light and colour from the natural materials. This necklace has been made from paua and coconut shells. Each piece has been cut so that it will lock into a twin giving a winged angle to each side. This means that the shape catches light from every direction and draws the edge into the coloured light being reflected by the shell. The piece is completed with the interlocking shell being woven together with a nylon cord. Philip Jarvis Star Brick Pillow Press moulded brick with Islamic star relief design, earthenware glaze. Lynn Kelly Coconut/Silver Bangle Bangle made of four sections, alternatively coconut and silver, held together with silver staples. Stephanie Lambert Lotus Necklace Cupped flowers of textured silver have a central nub of gold. The flowers are threaded through a tube afixed to the back onto a steel cable with spacer tube-beads completing the circlet. Pam McKelvey Bangle of Stars I A natural greywacke stone, through which an irregualr hole has been carved to enable it to be worn as a bangle. The carved surface is polished. Around the rim of the stone are incised eleven small six-pointed stars. The incisions are filled with epoxy on which gold leaf has been floated. Pam McKelvey Bangle of Stars II A natural greywacke stone, through which an irregualr hole has been carved to enable it to be worn as a bangle. Around the inside of the bangle are incised small six-pointed stars. The incisions are filled with epoxy on which gold leaf has been floated. Grant Thompson Pearl Pocket Two halves of carved pearl shell 'stitched' together to form an open pocket - a light filled space. Kelly Thompson Night Voyages This work comes from the series exhibited as 'Parallel Crossings' in Canberra 1995, exploring themes of journeys, mapping, and the search for social and cultural identity. It is warp dyed and painted, in double-cloth pick up weave using cotton and linen threads. It hangs slightly out from the wall, on an acrylic rod and velcro, without a frame. Marilynn Webb Protection Work - Green Willow Water Ida Valley The woodcuts are from a suite of ongoing works called 'Being in the Maniototo'. Land and place drive these works and are also the metaphor for her own self exploration and development. The imprint of a woodcut on soft paper encapsulates the embodiment of a special place and physically locks it into the paper.

Anthony Williams Bee This piece was made to order and is a one-off piece. Bob Wyber Kereru Feather Sterling Silver.
