I'm taking part in an excellent exhibition at the moment. It is called Not Too Precious and is being held in the Ruthin Craft Centre in Wales. Curated by Gregory Parsons, it has some of the big players of the jewellery world including Felieke Van Der Leest, Lena Peterson and Timothy Information Ltd. Ellie Jones-Hughes made this video at New Designers interviewing the students about their material choices. Find me at 2.26 For more information see http://ruthincraftcetre.org

Delighted to be exhibiting again this year at New Designers with my MFA work. It is their thirtieth birthday. I'll be with our NCAD metal and jewellery undergraduates and with our other MFA, silversmith Cecilia Moore. It's a great chance and treat for us to see the work of other metal / jewellery classes as we are in a bit of a bubble over here in Ireland.
