WELCOME TO HANDSHAKE 3

The third iteration of the HANDSHAKE project involved 12 highly skilled and creative NZ jewellery artists who were selected from the previous Handshake 1 and 2 projects. This extended version of the former programmes brought together all the experiences gained by the artists for a series of prestigious national and international exhibitions.

These exhibitions included unique collaborations with Texts for their Dowse Art Museum show, with former Mentors for their Objectspace exhibition, and with other Artists who came together during Munich Jewellery Week.

The HS3 exhibition showcased new artworks that were also displayed at the Frame at the Handwerksmesse in Munich and at Platina in Stockholm.

The HS3 programme also provided a valuable professional development experience for the HS3 artists with masterclass tutors Hilde de Decker, a Belgian artist and educator, and Sofia Björkman, a Swedish artist and gallerist.
