Imagined Objects of Desire


September 28th, 2010

Friday 1 October to Friday 17 December, University of Nottingham Museum, Archaeology Building, University Park, admission free.

The result of a collaboration between the University of Nottingham Museum and contemporary jewelery maker Lina Peterson, this exhibition examines the personal meaning that people give to objects. Lina took the objects that have their home in the Museum — and which help us understand the daily lives of our ancestors — and created her own ‘hybrid-artefacts’.
The exhibition also displays craft work produced by local people. The work expresses both the maker’s interest in the Museum’s artefacts, and their own personal stories.
