Brooching jewellery

5th September 2003, 1:00am
Is jewellery purely decorative or can it also tell a story? Judge for yourself at the Travelling Gallery’s latest exhibition, Jack Cunningham: Brooching the Subject.

On display are 20 narrative brooches created by the Scottish jeweller, inspired by a trip to Japan, plus elements of the creative process, such as sketches. There are also artist-led workshops and other events.
