Rockvault – Heads

An installation for the British Fashion Council during London Fashion Week, this exhibition presents ‘red carpet’ earrings made from the precious white metal, palladium – created by ten up-and-coming British jewellery designers commissioned by the BFC.  The earrings are displayed on stylised faceted facsimiles of the designers’ heads, made using 360° scanning and 3D-printing techniques, mounted on chamfered asymmetric display plinths which are formally arranged within the heritage interior setting of Somerset House.
