'Fern & Daisy' (East Gippsland) brooch

Brooch, 2022

Marian Hosking has interpreted the Australian landscape through silver jewellery and vessel work for over 50 years. In this new body of work, she returns to important Victorian environments: specific heathlands, beaches and forests from East Gippsland to the Grampians. These are places that have informed earlier work, and in returning to them, Marian re-engages with their changes and their fragile beauty.
