Postgraduate students specialising in Jewellery, Silversmithing and Related Products from Birmingham City University are gearing up to offer a unique insight into the very best of up-and-coming contemporary design. The exhibition, titled ‘MAdness in the Method’ will be working in association with Birmingham Children’s Hospital to raise funds for their Art’s Programme. The programme encourages children to get active, using art to aid there recovery by arranging various arts based activities over the summer that will get them out of their beds and sometimes even out of hospital. More than 30 MA students will be showcasing their final collections in a range of exhibitions open to the public this September. Work ranges from jewellery, glassware and product design, to tableware and body worn textiles and will demonstrate the student’s imagination, skill and innovation with an emphasis on individual creativity and originality. This is a truly international group exhibition in both content and style, the multi-national student group have come together to work intensively for the year to develop their own unique and idiosyncratic methods to making creative work.
