Transforming the Prototype 2
Building on the success of the 2022 exhibition Transforming the Prototype, the Baltimore Jewelry Center, Montgomery College, and Towson University invited students, alumni, emerging and established artists to apply for the group exhibition Transforming the Prototype 2. Participants received a collection of traditional vintage wax patterns (rings, pendants, odds & ends) which they transformed through additive or subtractive processes. The objective was to radically reimagine the prototype wax pattern into a bespoke object(s) or jewelry. Transforming the Prototype 2 was juried by Mary Hallam Pearse, Associate Professor of Art in Metals & Jewelry at the Lamar Dodd School of Art at the University of Georgia. The juror selected four artists to receive best in show awards; these will be announced at the opening and via social media.
Exhibition dates: May 31 - July 26, 2024
an opening reception was held on: May 31st, 5-8pm
