Embark marks the intersection of jewellery, perfumery and art, celebrating imagination and adventure. It tells a story of fearless creativity, as we unveil our brand new Pieces of Eight Parfum: a quest of discovery and artistic expression in collaboration with Strati Parfums, bespoke makers of fine fragrance.
The fragrance transports the wearer across oceans in search of exquisite riches and hidden paradise, encapsulating the spirit of voyage. In response, 20 contemporary Australian artists present jewellery and objects that respond to these concepts, capturing the very essence of Pieces of Eight: imagination, adventure, and the pursuit of rare and precious treasures.
Timed with the arrival of Spring and the revitalisation of our Russell Place gallery, the installation features a luxurious and creative display of flowers by Crushes Studio. Highlighting additional themes of renewal, rebirth, abundance and fresh beginnings, Embark celebrates the spirit of discovery and creativity, and is presented as part of the Radiant Pavilion Contemporary Jewellery & Object Biennial.
The exhibition will be displayed over our two Melbourne gallery locations:
