Join Justine Olsen, Curator Decorative Art & Design, in the exhibition Inspired: Ceramics and jewellery shaped by the past.
Travel back through time discovering connections and inspiration between artists – from ancient Egypt to present-day New Zealand. Justine will show how contemporary artists have used ancient ideas, colours, materials, and techniques – reminding us that the past is still relevant today.
If you are unable to attend the floor talk do make time over the weekend to view this wonderful exhibition before it closes on Sunday 25 September.
