Apply to exhibit at Birmingham Jewellery Biennial.
Description
Birmingham Jewellery Biennial invites UK-based jewellery practitioners to submit an Expression of Interest for the inaugural Birmingham Jewellery Biennial exhibition, taking place 1–31 May 2027.
The Birmingham Jewellery Biennial exhibition will bring together makers from across the UK and beyond, selected by an independent jury of leading figures from the jewellery world. The exhibition will be held at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery – one of the UK’s great civic museums, housed in a landmark building in the heart of the city.
Selected Open Call artists will exhibit alongside wider internationally recognised works, placing UK-based makers in direct conversation with the global jewellery field. We’re looking for ambitious, statement work that responds to this year’s theme and demonstrates creative design, technical excellence and quality of materials.
This year's theme: colour
Colour is central to the evolution of jewellery design throughout history. It has the power to signify belief, evoke emotion, make memories and express status, heritage and belonging. For the exhibition we are seeking submissions that are inspired by colour, experiment and innovate with colour, or explore the stories and symbolism of colour and its manifold meanings. Taking inspiration from Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery’s own collections, colour will be a lens to consider the wider relationships between making, wearing, gifting and viewing jewellery.
