One Year On at New Designers Part 1- Sharon Adams

29/06/2012

Sharon Adams with her tool museum stood out for me in this year’s jewellery-heavy selection. She was busy when I visited so we weren’t able to talk but I did have a good look at the work. Her tools hint at now-defunct purposes, even if they didn’t have one to begin with.

I know they can be seen as nostalgia for a rural idyll but I like them as objects: it’s up to us to decide what function they might have had.

If you just want to look at them they work fabulously as wall pieces; these beech ones are like drawings made flesh.
