Boisbuchet
Locating The Precious – 25 – 31 August 2019
Lin Cheung was invited to give a workshop at Boisbuchet. ‘Locating The Precious’ invited participants to freely explore ideas concerning preciousness and where that might be located by responding to the immediate environment and using readily available materials.
For over 25 years, CIRECA (Centre International de Recherche et d’Education Culturelle et Agricole), the non-profit organisation running Boisbuchet’s program, organises interdisciplinary workshops. Participants from all over the world live and work here together with noted designers, architects, and artists – not to come up with perfect results, but to gain insights into the creative process and the challenges involved.

Annoushka Awards 2019
Congratulation to Diane Jung for winning the Annoushka Outstanding Graduate Award 2019, presented by Annoushka Ducas.
Diana’s collection reflects her interest in the texture, smell and symbolism of laundry. She recalls the sight of a pillowcase on a washing line – an intimate possession, exposed to onlookers as it dries.
Congratulation to Jing Jiang for winning second prize the Annoushka Outstanding Graduate Award 2019, presented by Annoushka Ducas.
The Brian Wood Memorial Medal 2019
Congratulation to Danqi Zhao for winning the Brian Wood Memorial Medal, presented by Margarita Wood.
Danqi’s collection draws on her training in Chinese painting. She wants to remind us of the value of traditional techniques. For instance, the dents that she makes in enamel simulate the effects achieved by brushstrokes on rice paper. The white enamel resembles porcelain, but the unpredictable quality of the metal produces areas on the brooch that are faded or burned.
