Cabinet

In the Curiosity Cabinet we are currently
featuring The Contemporary Seeds by Yang
Zhang.
Artist statement "Because of my
infautation with technology and electronic products, my
communication with people in the real world and with nature
has suffered. So I decided to recycle the electronic waste
and peach pits around me to create a group of jewellery
which express how my life connects with contemporary
electronics. I have called my works The Contemporary Seeds."
