Looking to turn over a new leaf in 2025? Do it literally with jewelry designer Mallory Weston’s Shattered Begonia Brooch #3, a wearable artwork that pushes boundaries by combining jewelry and textile working techniques. Part of her NODES series, which also features a dangerously spiky-looking prickly pear and enormous monstera leaf necklace, the piece grabs the attention by combining natural subject matter with a digital-aesthetic achieved with a tiled titanium construction. It is on view in R & Company’s sprawling Objects USA, a showcase of 100 objects by 55 makers. (In Tribeca through Jan 10th. Note that gallery hours change during the holiday period).
