Next year, JMGQ will present an exhibition The State of Shine at Radiant Pavilion 2019, in Melbourne. This is a juried members’ exhibition, with a panel of experts in the field selecting the artists and works, and we are currently seeking expressions of interest for the exhibition and its development. Radiant Pavilion is a celebration of the many aspects of contemporary jewellery and draws on the strong community surrounding contemporary jewellery and objects in Melbourne, Australia and around the world.

Radiant Pavilion aims to:
  • Coordinate an active program of events to support and celebrate the contemporary jewellery and object field by creating a new platform for presentation, participation and investigation;
  • to connect artists, theorists, collectors, wearers and appreciators from Australia and around the world;
  • to grow the audience by increasing visibility and awareness of the field;
