He has used the structural and visual qualities of gold, stainless steel, titanium, polyester laminate, acrylic, and sterling silver to express his philosophy of man and the environment. Initially a silversmith and creative jeweller, Norman Creighton began exploring the versatile potential of metals and plastics some two years ago and uses jewellery design techniques to create precious objects with a difference, and of great sophistication, without destroying the simplicity of his basic philosophies of man and nature. Inspiration for this exhibition comes from the environment around us - water, hills, and sky, man’s need for shelter, etc. The constructions are accompanied by sensitive photographs of the areas which inspired the work and visually complement each other. Norman Creighton, who has exhibited all over Australia, is widely recognised as one of Australia’s top silversmiths and is currently teaching at Melbourne State College. He is represented in both public and private collections in Australia and overseas and has been invited, with two other jewellers, to exhibit in London later this year. This exhibition is a must for those people, not only interested in jewellery as an art form and/or contemporary design, but for all who care about the artist-craftsman and their experimenting in their constant search for originality and a high standard of craftsmanship. “Landscape Images” is one of the most excitingly different exhibitions we have had in the Gallery for some time, and Norman Creighton has achieved, in his work, an intellectual and visual challenge. Several of the exhibits are for sale.” Pam Gullifer, Director Ararat Gallery https://static1.squarespace.com/static/605e1e85f9c25757e3ce4a9d/t/6061dfcd4c4fe101755581a9/1617027127623/Studio+Life+1.jpg Australian Artist and Goldsmith Norman Creighton https://static1.squarespace.com/static/605e1e85f9c25757e3ce4a9d/t/6061ef57b721401f9904c003/1617031146055/Exhibition+Life+4+queensland+art+gallery.png Australian Artist and Goldsmith Norman Creighton Public lecture: In association with exhibition “Survey of Contemporary Australian Crafts” | Queensland Art Gallery 1982 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/605e1e85f9c25757e3ce4a9d/t/6062187ea80682520ff9f01f/1617044369020/Australian+Farm+Game+2.jpg Australian Artist and Goldsmith Norman Creighton “Australian Farm Game” - 1979 | CLICK TO EXPAND Brass, copper, nickel, sterling silver, titanium 33 mm diameter each piece. 170 mm x 170 mm board Exhibited: International Jewellery Invitational, Tokyo, Japan (invited) and exhibited in Tokyo Japan, Kyoto Japan, Hong Kong, Manilla Phillipines, Seoul Republic of Korea Crafts Board of Australia Collection 1980. National Gallery of Australia, Canberra ACT “After an extensive study tour to the United States in 1976, Creighton’s work became more sculptural and illustrative, reflecting personal rural themes of his childhood… The work was mounted on panels for the wall or created as table sculptures.” “Place and Adornment: A History of Contemporary Jewellery in Australia and New Zealand” by Damian Skinner and Kevin Murray 2014, pp. 53-54 “…the largest of a number of similar pieces expressing concern about the plight of rural Australia, where Creighton had grown up and where farming was losing its economic importance.” “The Crafts Movement in Australia: A History” by Grace Cochrane pp.197 “I make individual one-off works which are inspired by my upbringing in the country. The “Farm Game” series are tabletop pieces - pieces for a game with no rules. These sculptural works are exploring the power and potential of the miniature forms that jewellers and silversmiths have always used, with the introduction of new qualities brought about with the use of titanium.” Norman Creighton Catalogue: International Jewellery Art Exhibition, Tokyo 1979 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/605e1e85f9c25757e3ce4a9d/t/606238403557227ce2b7b9f0/1617066975748/emu+egg+acknowledgment.png Australian Artist and Goldsmith Norman Creighton “Australian Bicentennial Emu Egg Centrepiece 1988” | CLICK TO EXPAND Emu egg, sterling silver | 18 ct gold, brass, copper, steel, acrylic, wood and paint “…Presentation pieces of all varieties proliferated in early Australian silver.
