Aillie Anderson creates dynamic, minimal adornment and small scale sculpture using a combination of uniquely textured, precisely scored silver and hand cast jesmonite forms. Born and based in Glasgow, Aillie draws inspiration from the built environment, particularly the architecture and industrial features of the city and explores scale, texture and materials to highlight her appreciation of these overlooked details and reinterpret them into treasured pieces of jewellery and objects.

Aimee Birnbaum RI is a painter and printmaker with studios in London and Tuscany. Both these places are a great source of inspiration for her. She takes interest in the strange, the uncanny the magical and the mysterious. The alchemy of etching fascinates her; she feels there is an unseen force which breathes life into the image.
Living on the Regents Canal and working by the River Thames has impacted on her imagination. The etching series Time and the River depicts familiar London landmarks mixed with the ghosts of the Lost London.

We all are hunters and dreamers. Small found objects when grouped together form magic oases, temples, buildings and city skylines. Childhood memories coated in gold and silver turn into treasure for adults. Nowadays megapolises "swallow" people, but you can keep your own fairy-tail city right on your finger or standing in front of you on your desk. It's yours.
