The Radiant Archive

Pieces of Eight

28 Russell Place Melbourne VIC 3000

18 July - 29 July 2024

Step into a world where natural history meets ornate decorative arts: The Radiant Archive brings together a selection of resin artworks produced by Kate Rohde over the past ten years. 

Inspired by her deep appreciation for natural history and the opulent aesthetics of eras such as the Rococo period, these sculptural works showcase Kate Rohde’s visionary artistry, exquisite craftsmanship, and unique perspectives on colour, opulence and luxury.

The Radiant Archive will feature a number of unique one-off items commissioned for display by Pieces of Eight at the Melbourne Design Fair, 2023; also those created for her Hermès Sydney window and store installation, as well as a selection of functional vessels.

In the depths of a cold Melbourne winter, embrace the warmth and vibrancy of Kate Rohde's artistic journey to date as we present these works in our very own colourful Wunderkammer, at our original Russell Place gallery; 28 Russell Place, Melbourne.
