Main image: Cadi Froehlich / Bottom left: Justine Alison / Bottom right: Alex O’ConnorInvesting in art can be hard. Yes it’s easy to purchase a single piece and make it work with other pieces you own, but some times, you just need to be bold and invest i
n an collection.

Today we feature three artisans who create collections for maximum impact.

Straight from the kiln, Cadi Froehlich will showcase brand new works. She takes inspiration from traditional slipware and adds motifs of digital connection and humanity.

Justine Alison presents collections in varying heights and perspectives, the dynamic relationships within each group of vessels subtly shift and evolve. Each group reveals a distinct character and dialogue, encouraging the viewer to engage from multiple viewpoints.

And finally, our very own Alex O’Connor returns to showcase her distinctive and exquisitely made silverware collections and jewellery. Her silverware merges an inherent understanding of form, composition, and balance with the specific disciplines of contemporary craft, resulting in pieces that are both sculptural and functional.
