Main Gallery

RARE REFLECTIONS - THE ART OF WESLEY HARRIS

Hand wrought hollowware and pendants in precious metals and rare gems capture the fragile beauty of nature.

Through the manipulation of heat-treated synthetics and an experimental use of natural fibres, these textile works seek to evoke an awareness of the sacred.
