The Platinum Store installation. Gold, Silver and Bronze exhibition at the Shire Hall Gallery, Stafford.....

On Thursday I spent the day installing gold, silver and bronze-coloured found and unwanted objects/ fragments for the "Gold, Silver and Bronze" exhibition at the lovely Shire Hall Gallery, Stafford (which runs from 14th July to 9th September). The gallery is in an absolutely lovely building and some of the works on show are truly beautiful. There's also lots for young children to do whilst going around the exhibits.

Here are a few progress photos from the day...


 I laid the pieces out on the floor first, to double check composition and colour order.....

  Just getting started with the gluing, hammering and white-tackiing, big things and golds/ bronzes first....

  Gold done, just starting on the brightest silvers.....

  Keeping my eye on the clock, and the dwindling supply of found objects...

  Just starting to meet in the middle now..


I had JUST enough pieces to fill the 3.5 sq ft frame, thankfully!! Not a bad day's work!
