One of my favourite jewellery makers and artists,
Henriette Schuster has a solo exhibition titled
'Almost Invisible' at
Gallery Funaki. I can't wait to see it.

"Sometimes the most
affecting gestures are very small and very quiet. Schuster creates jewellery
and drawings that shy away from bold declarations and instead, wait quietly for
close attention. Working with silver and thread, Henriette’s jewellery is
arrestingly simple and direct: small elements, often in pairs, sit in delicate
balance with one another, a subtle dance of interdependence and connection." from here.
