There is noth­ing this girl loves more than check­ing out jew­elry, because hello, it’s mostly sparkly and shiny.

Cel­eb­rat­ing that very fact is Shine, a jew­elry exhib­i­tion with a bit of a twist. Instead of your stand­ard hanging from the walls and encased in boxes exhib­it, Shine is a a per­form­ance exhib­i­tion where con­tem­por­ary and bur­lesque dan­cers, act­ors and cir­cus per­formers will all be adorned by the cre­ations of six women jew­el­ers from around New Zea­l­and.

Shine

In their own words:

“It will be quite unlike any jew­ellery exhib­i­tion you’ve seen; glow­ing, lumin­ous works will be presen­ted in con­text, close to the skin, mov­ing, in con­ver­sa­tion with its human envir­on­ment in a glor­i­ous even­ing of bur­lesque dance. Streams of pearls, gleam­ing sil­ver chain-links quiv­er­ing on skin; feath­ers tick­ling just under­neath a chin… this is a per­form­ance that glor­i­fies beauty, and wel­comes the human form in all its shapes.”
