Big Egg Hunt #Egg55
The Whittaker’s Big Egg Hunt is on again from 12 March to 7 April 2015 - 100 giant eggs created by leading and emerging New Zealand artists, designers and celebrities have been hidden in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
To raise funds for the Starship Foundation the eggs will be auctioned off; 80 of them on Trade Me, and 20 at a gala cocktail event on the 31st.
My absolute, hands-down favourite is Jamie Mclellan's assemblage of generous bowls.
I visited Jamie's studio last week and got to see the work in the flesh. It is a beautifully crafted piece of design.
Jamie is on instagram (#jamiemclellan) and he has posted a small film about the work.
