'The Chandelier of lost Earrings' makes a brief showing on Levenshulmes Local radio All Fm 96.9 on this Sundays Art Beat Show at 12pm, many thanks to Andrew who hosts the show. Do listen in...click here
Temporary, magical, bizarre or enlightening,‘pop up’ installations based inside, and responding to an existing hospital artwork – The Glass Summer House, at St Marys Hospital Manchester, up for a day, or two or more.... The Chandelier Of Lost Earrings will be next, made of all those lonely earrings left in the drawer, that have lost their pair, coming together in a huge beautiful mass participation creation, the chandelier. We are artists Sagar and Campbell.

Lots and lots of donated Earrings- Thank You
A big thank you to all the people, who have sent in lovely Earrings to be part of the Chandelier.
We still need people to support and back the project on People Fund it, do check it out and help.
We really want to make sure that Art continues to thrive in Hospitals, it is an evidenced benefit to patients well being and recovery time.
A big thank you to all our backers who are pledging money to support the building of the chandelier structure and lighting.
Please do keep sending in the lost earrings - to Lime Arts, High Elms, Upper Park Rd, Manchester, M14 5RU
Here are some that have been donated, I'll post more pictures tomorrow.....they will all look marvellous in the Chandelier.
Many of the earrings received have come with short notes, pictures, telling us when the women had had there babies at St Marys Hospital, which is where the chandelier will be hung (in the Summer Glass house).
It feels like the chandelier project has struck a chord with people, where we can all be involved creatively to a certain degree, to give other women using the hospital a beautiful and sparkling visual piece of Eye candy whilst waiting for appointments, treatment or to have there babies!
