A survey exhibition at Queensland Art Gallery of the work of Barbara Heath. There is very little of the work in the exhibition online.That it is a pity because there are many fine forms.
Barbara Heath, Earrings, 18k gold, beryl
There are more online images at de novo
Barbara Heath, Earrings,18k gold, enamel, sapphires
These are examples of contemporary jewellery as wearables.
Barbara Heath: Brooch, enamel, 18k gold, silver, sapphire
But these images do not give any indication of the more scuptural or design pieces or the symbolic dimension of the work--mourning, memories, fertility charms, love tokens etc.

Thanks Gary . . . I dropped in to check the latest things here as I was in the middle of an email to a friend in Spain who has a blogg on the the side of the road, he is a cyclist. Pleasantly surprised to see Barbara's objects mixed in with the more serious stuff up here!
