Blanche Tilden—ripple effect: a 25 year survey


Geelong Gallery Director and CEO, Jason Smith invites you to join him in the studio of Melbourne-based jeweller and maker Blanche Tilden to discover her unique approach to materials, in particular, glass, which she explores both as a material for jewellery making and deploys as a metaphor for the connections between making, industry, the wearable object and the body.

From her studio, Blanche reflects on her 25 year practice sharing insights into key works and the processes used to form her pieces.
