Highlights From JamFactory to Lime Factory JamFactory Glass Studio Technician, Tim Edwards travelled to Oaxaca, Mexico to assist JamFactory alumnus Diego Vides Borrell in setting up his own glass blowing studio. While there, Edwards worked on building and installing a glory hole and two annealers in the studio, established within the chimney space of an old lime factory. The old factory called La Calera now operates as a gallery and arts hub, as well as an Airbnb and function centre. The studio is a space for Vides Borrell to work on his own practice, which ranges from designing and making lighting and glass vessels to fulfilling restaurant commissions.

Australian Glass Represented In Berlin This July, JamFactory, alongside Canberra Glassworks, partnered with Berlin Glas to represent Australian glass art at Berlin’s Benhadj&Djilali Galerie fur Design, with an exhibition titled Made in Australia: Emerging Design from Canberra & Adelaide. The exhibition was presented within the framework of the Australia now Germany <strong>2017</strong> initiative and supported by The Department of Foreign Affairs to showcase Australian culture in Germany through a multifaceted year long program. Associates and alumni that showcased their work included Emma Young, Renato Perez, Kristel Britcher, Liam Fleming (work pictured right) and Billy Crellin. Photographer: Anna Fenech Harris. Waringarri Aboriginal Arts Earlier in the year, JamFactory had the pleasure of hosting mother and daughter Peggy and Jan Griffiths, two artistsin-residence from Waringarri Aboriginal Arts, located in the Kimberley region of far northern Western Australia. The pair spent two weeks in JamFactory’s Ceramics Studio learning new sculpting practices and working on decorating large-form platters with techniques such as sgraffito. Both artists spent time working on their own sculptural pieces whilst experimenting with various clay types. Each piece was glazed and fired with several selected for exhibition in JamFactory’s Collect space during the TARNANTHI Festival of Contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art.

JamFactory Front and Centre at Denfair <strong>2017</strong> At the annual Denfair event in Melbourne this year, six Furniture Studio Associates and two recent alumni represented JamFactory as part of the inaugural Front/Centre initiative. The initiative, a new inclusion to Denfair’s program, provided an opportunity to promote emerging designers from Craft ACT, Artisan, QLD, Designed Objects Tasmania and Workshopped in association with Australian Design Centre, Sydney. JamFactory alumnus and Furniture Studio Production Manager, Nicholas Fuller won the Front/Centre Best Emerging Designer Award for his Cantilever, 2016 side tables (pictured left). Photographer: Johanis Lyons-Reid. Truly Honoured Longtime volunteer and supporter of JamFactory, Truus Daalder and her husband Joost, both passionate contemporary jewellery collectors, have generously gifted over 150 pieces of their extensive private contemporary jewellery collection to the Art Gallery of South Australia. The Daalder collection is the largest and most significant private collection of contemporary jewellery in Australia and features a vast array of prominent international and Australian artists from the early 20th century to now. Particular attention is shown to artists from New Zealand and South Australia including Adelaide-based artists Sarah Rothe, Julie Blyfield and Catherine Truman. The gift is a remarkable acquisition for the Art Gallery of South Australia and one that will see the Gallery’s holdings of contemporary jewellery increased to one of the largest and most significant in the country.

Ceramics at Ernabella First-year Ceramics Associate, Ashlee Hopkins, returned to Ernabella Arts in the Northern Territory this April thanks to Arts South Australia funding for the Pukatja Cuppatea Cup Carnival, a community outreach ceramics skill development project working with young people. Hopkins’s first visit in April 2016 was to undertake a month-long ceramics technician position. Returning a year later, the funding allowed Hopkins to spend two weeks holding a wheel throwing workshop for young female artists from Ernabella. The workshop focused specifically on teaching the women to throw cups which were then decorated by young men in the community as part of a weekly watiku (men’s) ‘Pots and Pizza’ night. The project was documented and turned in to a number of short bi-lingual educational films which will be shown at a community exhibition night and used to teach future Ernabella artists.
