This year during our group exhibition around the theme “Hybrid” we asked viewers to interact with the show by leaving comments. Viewers could provide their own interpretation of a piece, comment on a piece, or let us know their favourite work in the show. We had a wonderful response and below are some of the comments about the work!
Love the beginning of Life it reminds me of a beautiful Bloom. – Marion
Coral Reef & Chochos by Helena Perez Lafaurie: I felt connected to the planet the moment I saw H.P.L.’s pieces. The raw beauty & asymmetry was so perfectly balanced with the final form and colour, Love! – Jenny
I like the unique pieces. Awesome local business. Very nice staff and owner. – James
Fascinating, thought provoking, marvellous – Veronica
I really like the pieces, but three items really call out to me: Gillian Batcher’s whimsical & imaginary animals are so cute but also so well crafted. They make me happy when I look at them. Lafaurie’s organic piece made of emerald, silver with a wood base harkens back to the elemental: we know that for eons and eons, far below the earth, precious jewels have been developing their unique strata. The wooden stand with its indigenous ethnicity depiction is unusual & an important statement of life on this planet. Thirdly, I love Alexis Kostuk’s foray into indigo enamels. Her necklace is luxurious and strikingly simple, even with so many components. I would wear this piece instantly! The whole exhibit covers every aspect of fancy. Well done! -Andrea
Are beautiful dinosaur bees the future? – Devon
I like Amanda Henderson’s Mixed Gold, Silver, Copper Necklace. – Jeannine
Alexis Kostuk. Elegant, nice shades of blue, eye catching. – Bernard
Hybrid is a fantastic concept to combine different creative pieces and colours and create something unique. It’s really interesting and fascinating to create in this way. – Marlene
Hybrids are a very relevant idea in our world today with the rapid spreading of ideas and information. I am always surprised and amazed by the unique creations I find. – Rania
