It’s all yellow

This week it’s been all about yellow. I’m sure there’s a song in there somewhere, or perhaps it’s just fashion/spring (delete as inclined).

These are part of  Wanderlust by Jilly Edwards as seen at Collect 14.

This shocking 60s yellow fabric is on display at the Fashion and Textile Museum as part of their Artist Fabrics exhibition.
Then the Emmanuel Cooper retrospective at Contemporary Applied Arts’ new home in Southwark (and it was all yellow too – apart from the pink ones).

This is the work of Valeria Nacimento shown by Contemporary Ceramics at Collect 2013.
The paper-like porcelain is made from slabs and rolled into shapes, much like pasta. The whiteness looks great in the white cube space that is the Saatchi Gallery. (Good to see the folks at CPA again, though we worked out it was 13 years since I worked for Ceramic Review.)
See more of her work on her website  or more about Contemporary Ceramics at the CPA blog.
