September 2010

tenmoregirls are proud to announce that they have exhibit some of their works made for girls around the world at International Jewellery Fair in Sydney.

This amazing opportunity was only possible due to our kind sponsors Peekays Findings who kindly donated us some of their jewellery findings. The project was to create contemporary piece of jewellery using Peekays findings, corresponding the theme of girls around the world exhibition. This range of jewellery was then exhibited at Peekays Findings stand during the International Jewellery Fair in Sydney 2010.

I would like to say thank you to those who made it to our artist talks on Saturday. It is always little nerve-racking to stand up in front of an audience and talk about our work and concepts. Yet you made it very natural and comfortable for us.

Here are a few photos from the day. See if you can find one with you.

TENMOREGIRLS PRESENTS: GIRLS AROUND THE WORLD
The tenmorgirls collective is an internationally faceted group of female artists who
believe that they can make the world go round by creating beautiful & unique jewellery &
objects.

For the third year in a row they are uniting to hold an annual exhibition of contemporary
wearable art. The collective consists of ten female designers and makers who met while
studying at the Design Centre Enmore and who are committed to exhibiting every year to
promote and nurture the medium in their local community and beyond.
Having steadily built a buzz around their work in their previous shows, Girls for Boys 2008
and Girls Against Gold 2009, the girls continue to explore contemporary themes and are
exhibiting Girls Around the World at the recently relocated Gaffa Gallery in its
stunning new home, a heritage listed 3 story building on 281 Clarence Street in the CBD.
This years’ theme Girls Around the World reflects the group’s interest in diverse
cultures, their love of travel and issues such as globalization, international politics, the
environment & human rights. Their stories, expressed through wearable artworks will be
fabricated from contemporary and traditional materials and promise to challenge
perceptions and capture the imagination.

The Ten More Girls collective consists of the following participants:
Majella Beck
Jenny Daskalakis
Andrea Iglesias
Nikki Majajas
Natasha Marcus-Taylor
Jasmine Matus
A Mi Kim
Radka Passianova
Bernadette Trainor
Janis Valdivia

Visual Arts (NAVA) through funding from Arts NSW, an agency of the NSW Government.
