Ogling the objects


So many gorgeous objects at Collect ("the international art fair for contemporary objects"), this year as in previous years.

Apologies for the blurry pix, there seems to be an issue with uploading from camera (pix taken on usual phone) to computer (google photos, where they are sharp) to Blogger (which has had "enhancement" problems in the past). I'm investigating...

Thank you so much for these photos. I have spent a glorious time looking up some of the artists. Particularly the glass clothing! and the Beading by the Ubuhle artist, Thando Ntobela.
It must have been an awesome art fair!
