flockOmania (2015-present)

flockOmania features wearable sculptures made by jewellery designer Zoe Robertson which have been generated in collaboration with dance-makers Natalie Garrett Brown and Amy Voris. The collection of work responds to the tactility and sensuality of industrial materials which are not typically associated with the commercial jewellery discipline. The objects have been meticulously hand-crafted using traditional fabrication techniques in combination with industrial processes and new technology and, as such, are in critical dialogue with notions of what jewellery can be. As dance-makers, we are interested in how collaborating with a jewellery-maker challenges and consolidates our craft and likewise how our practice may inform the conception and crafting of Robertson’s objects.
