Art Nouveau Jewelry Exhibit at the MFA
Currently on display at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts
Designed by Charles Desrosiers sometime between 1898-1901. Note the light coming through the petals... it's translucent/backless enamel called plique à jour!
This necklace reminds me of pea pods. The pearls are ones that formed on the wall of the ouster shell.

Juan's Song
One of the amazing benefits of my job at MassArt is having immediate access to exhibits like the "Speaker Project", which is installed in one of the galleries on campus. It is a giant sculpture/speaker created by Chicago based artist Juan Angel Perez using all found objects collected on the streets of his city and mine. The band Goli began the month of performances given from inside the piece.
