Momentarily Here is a year-long photography & art jewellery project. I will present a selection of work from my current investigation Momentarily Here in a two person show with painter Kirrily Hammond titled 'Keepsake'. The exhibition will be featured as part of the Radiant Pavilion exhibition program in August in Melbourne. Keepsake plots a unique course across time—small traces captured on an iPhone between night and day, home and work, travelling from one place to another.

It's taken a little while to settle in to our new home and for me to unpack my studio and finish set ting it up, after thinking I'd be all good and ready to go in January. While it's been a slow start in terms of making, there are a lot of projects on the go including a new piece a day project, so stay tuned for more details and progress images in the near future. #simluttin #studio #contemporaryjewellery #craft

Being a craftsperson in a contemporary art context can
