Jane Bamford’s work will be showcased by Design Tasmania at the Melbourne Design Fair from the 16th to the 20th of March 2022.
From the catalogue:
The Melbourne Design Fair showcase has been developed by Tasmanian-based freelance designer and curator Michelle Boyde and presents a range of naturally resourceful Tasmanian designer- makers whose practice embodies a living relationship with their craft and our island’s beautiful materials.
“In considering Melbourne Design Week’s theme this year of ‘making good’ - there’s a sense that these designers see the local materials they work with as innately good before it’s taken into their hands to be transformed. People who buy their work become custodians of this ‘goodness’ – inviting the work to be part of their spaces and lives, respecting its form and function, hopefully entering into a contract to give them long lives.” - Michelle Boyde, Curator.
