Caroline Broadhead (b. 1950) is a highly versatile artist who began designing jewellery in the late 1970s. Since then she has extended her practice from wearable objects and textile works to dance collaborations and installations in historic buildings. This book presents a comprehensive overview of her work. Confronting the boundaries of the individual, the interface of inside and outside, public and private, territory and personal space, presence and absence, and substance and image, Broadhead explores the outer extents of the body as seen through light, shadows, reflections and movement.

Liesbeth den Besten is an independent art historian who is working internationally as a writer, curator, advisor, jury member, exhibition maker, teacher and lecturer in the fields of crafts and design, especially contemporary art jewellery.
