Miserden is situated in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Gloucestershire, it sits roughly 4 miles northeast of Stroud. It is famous for its rolling hills, traditional limestone cottages, and the award-winning 17th-century The Garden at Miserden.

I'm pleased to announce that my Matsu-mori sculptor is at Miserden this summer from 3rd June to 2nd August 2026.

My practice is rooted in jewellery design and making, but this time I stepped beyond the bench to create a bold large-scale sculptural piece. This exciting new direction has led me to become a member of the Cotswold Sculptors Association.

A pine forest in its condensed form. The name ‘Matsu-Mori’ means Pine Forest in my native language of Japanese. Each needle has been handmade using traditional jewellery techniques to form the characteristic branches of the Picea breweriana tree. I have emulated the flowing natural form of this evergreen tree as faithfully as I can while working within my skillset as a jeweller.

An art installation hanging from the ceiling with numerous black metal chains and interconnected wire structures resembling a forest or mountain range. The background is a plain light-colored wall.
A pile of copper-colored safety pins scattered on a wooden surface.
A hand holding a branch of pine needles with sunlight casting shadows of the needles on the hand, outdoors with trees and a blue sky in the background.
Black tree branches and leafless trees in a foggy setting, with a small silhouette of a bird or small object near the bottom right.
