Working with Silver: Contemporary Artist Junko Mori

Contemporary silver artist Junko Mori talks about the inspiration behind her "Silver Poetry Spring Fever Ring" piece - Temple Newsam's latest acquisition - and demonstrates her silversmithing techniques and equipment.
This film was commissioned alongside the Showstoppers: Silver Centrepieces exhibition on display at Temple Newsam until 15 October 2017.
The exhibition showcases the continuation and reinvention of traditional silversmithing techniques and celebrates women in silver, as makers and owners.
With thanks to Digifish, the filmmakers.

    I have a friend who is taking a TIG welding class right now. I sent this to her. More women need to see what can be done! I wish I could afford to take metal working classes; that look so relaxing.

    Fascinating! Just saw British Museum YT about the piece they acquired - made of iron, so very dark. I think Leeds has the more beautiful piece, especially with the 31 syllables / 31 organic forms concept behind it.

    2:18 “Once it’s hit, you can’t bend it” - so is there some structural / molecular change in the metal? And does that apply to every metal?

    This is actually fine silver - not Sterling- so it is very delicate.

    Why did she say tanka is the shortest Japanese poetry? Haikus are shorter.

    it is if you go long enough. You comment is irrelevant and off topic discussed at any rate.

    I wonder if there might have been a complication in translation?
