She talks about redefining the Value of her pieces in the way she thinks,  creates and finally makes.

In April 2023, Craig Potton Gallery presented during Nelson Jewellery Week her solo exhibition, the Magpie Nest Project, resulted of decluttering 30 years of impulsive consumption,

Now, she forages, harvests, finds, recycles discarded pieces the sea gives us back.

her new solo show, during NJW2025, "out of the Blue"  is going to last as long as she can find porcelain shards on New Zealand shores.

This body of  work Is part of her concept "the Earth Is Blue like..." inspired by French poet Paul Eluard.


Beatrice Carlson practice is made in respect to our environment.

No nasty chimicals, there is most of the time a way round to make things work, it is just a matter of research, patience and dedication but also novation.

We are for a little time part of a wonderful adventure on our planet...let's just make it even better for the next generations!
