Forthcoming from Volume Editions
I, Object is a collection of short texts by jewellery objects, narrated to jeweller (and bookseller!) Stella Chrysostomou. Here, jewellery objects reflect on their relationship to the world, to each other, and with their human acquaintances (their makers, wearers, viewers, and owners). These texts ask us to reconsider our attitudes to, and our thinking about, jewellery, and — the tables turned — to experience jewellery afresh. I, Object will be published on 13 April, but you can order it from our website now. An exhibition associated with the book will be shown at gallery 18a during Nelson Jewellery Week

VOLUME EDITIONS.  The pieces that comprise the first three titles of our new series of short interesting texts came to us unbidden in various ways, but each demonstrates the strong connection between memory, identity and place. We are very pleased to be launching our publishing imprint with such excellent work.

VOL 003: Transit in Marrakech by David Coventry     $5
