“Making is a conversation between intention and the unpredictable qualities of metal.”⁠ ⁠ For NSCAD professor and Loewe Craft Prize finalist Kye-Yeon Son @kyeyeonson , creating sculpture is an act of listening. Metal resists, yields, and changes—and rather than imposing a strict plan, Son lets the material guide every direction, volume, and texture.⁠ ⁠ Inspired by the movement of tall grass moving in the wind, she uses exceptionally fine steel wire dipped in gold and silver plating to build light-filled, delicate structures. What emerges are spatial poems about resilience and endurance. Born out of the Nova Scotian landscape, her work proves that even the industrial strength of steel can embody the fragile, harmonious grace of nature.⁠ ⁠ Come feel the quiet tension between fragility and strength in person this winter.⁠ ⁠ ANNEAL | Craft, Inheritance and Future of Metal⁠ ⁠ 📍 KOPPEL Collective Gallery, 157 Regent’s Park Rd, London NW1 8BB⁠ ⁠ 📅 26 Nov – 4 Dec 2026 | 11 AM–7 PM⁠ ⁠ ✨ Opening Night: 26 Nov, 5–8:30 PM⁠ ⁠ Free RSVP via link in bio.⁠ ⁠ #ANNEAL #ClusterCrafts #SteelArt #SculpturalJewellery #LondonExhibitions #ArtInLondon #LoeweCraftPrize

Venice, Day 4 What a beautiful final day in Venice. Our group spread across the islands, exploring Venezia, Murano and Burano, where we discovered new connections, made valuable contacts and found inspiration around every corner. For our Mission Artists, it was the perfect way to close our time here. A day filled with creativity, meaningful conversations, extraordinary art and the exquisite craftsmanship that makes Venice so unique.
