SUMMARY:STATES OF TENSION – ANNE EARLS-BOYLAN
DESCRIPTION:  \nJewellery holds our attention\, not only because of its ability to play with light – to sparkle – it also transmits signals of wealth and status. \n  \nYet the intimate relationship we build with our jewels runs deeper; rooted in emotional ties to significant events\, people and place. This complex relationship originates in ‘gifting’; a transaction that creates bonds\, conveying a culture’s values through its most prized resources. \n  \nUsing the language of jewellery Earls Boylan takes us on a thought-provoking journey\, manipulating visual and historic cues. She draws on the tensions embedded within our value systems\, reframing what “precious” within a jewel might be; its monetary value or its power to hold our attention and communicate sentiment. \n  \nRead more and check the opening times of the Marketplace Theatre here.
