Fertility Gallery

Jewellery by Rebecca Ward made for 'Token Love', a JMGQ exhibition that challenged participants to scratch beneath the surface of adornment. Rebecca created a range of works invesigating the vexed notion of fertility in the modern age.

"If science is the dominant contemporary religion, or way that we understand the world, then I am looking at ways to reinterpret fertility charms using the 'wisdom' of our time. The works also grew out of this initial idea to touch upon how science is not only explaining but also manipulating fertility".
