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.”
