Exhibited:
Victoria & Albert Museum, London, Fit for Purpose, 2012.
This was part of a collection of work made by an array of silversmiths to coincide with the V&A's British Design Season and to complement its major exhibition British Design 1948-2012: Innovation in the Modern Age.
In the exhibition silversmiths were asked to take an imaginative look at the theme Fit for Purpose, with the function of each object explored both practically and conceptually through the medium of silver, each piece described by its purpose.
