"Vienna-based jeweller Jacqueline Lillie is renowned for her exquisite beaded creations, which have found their way into museum collections around the world, including the Powerhouse. A typical piece might contain thousands of minute antique Bohemian glass, metal or pearl beads. Her influences are diverse – from the aesthetics of the Bauhaus and Russian Constructivists to the beadwork of the Masai and Yoruba. This is a rare opportunity to hear and see the work of a jeweller of such international repute."
