1. London Design Festival – PEARL
Caroline Broadhead’s work in this exhibition caught my eye. She has an interesting combination of woven metal and pearls. The artist told me that she has always been concerned with objects that come into contact and interact with the body, exploring the external range of the body through light, shadow, reflection and movement.
2. V&A AFRICA FASHION
This exhibition looks back at the history of fashion in Africa, including the women’s equal rights movement and feminist designs. This exhibition gave me an insight into feminist design in Africa, unfortunately there was less jewellery design related to it rather than the majority of clothing design. However, through the evolution of patterns, shapes and so on, I could fully appreciate the power of feminist design
