Sheffield Makes: @nobleandwylie 👞

Meet Kenneth, the craftsman and shoemaker behind Noble and Wylie, a workshop and shoe shop in Sheffield. Kenneth makes sustainable footwear by hand, using artisanal practices and traditional construction methods on heritage machines.

His background in Fashion Design and pattern cutting has helped him refine his designs that are based on a modern utilartarian aesthetic with a gentle nod to the historic vintage styles of the British workshop.

Each piece is fully repairable and made to last, echoing the brand’s strong environmental conscience and core design values.

Kenneth discusses the background of his workshop and shows us the making process from cutting to finishing. He also addresses the modern realities of running a successful brand and workshop today, including the conflicting impact of social media.

Sheffield Makes is a series of short films about Sheffield makers, processes and products produced within the City of Sheffield and surrounding area. It’s part of our Digital Programme, and offers a unique insight into the latest chapter in Sheffield’s making story.

The Ruskin Collection: Storm-Cloud - The Look of the Sky opened at the Millennium Gallery in Dec, and since then, artists from across the world have been responding to Ruskin’s revolutionary 1884 lecture, which was one of the first to discuss climate change, and inspired this exhibition @ruskintoday

Here’s curator, Ashley Gallant, to explain how this digital artwork by @doctortompayne and @goodgoodgoodall is evolving thanks to artists across the world responding to the lecture.

This exhibition brings together work from the @ruskintoday collection, curated by our @natsatclub young people, with video work by @goodgoodgoodall and research by @doctortompayne at @sheffhallamuni

The Ruskin Collection: Storm-Cloud - the Look of the Sky continues at the Millennium Gallery until 29 Nov 26. If you like this exhibition, please donate £5 to help care for Sheffield’s collection and celebrate the stories they tell.

✨ Open Call - Visual Artists ✨

We would like to invite expressions of interest from Visual Artists to create new work in dialogue with an artwork from Sheffield’scollection, bringing different perspectives to the fore.

Sheffield Museums believe that the city’s Collection prompts many wide-ranging conversations and we are interested in how artists can use these conversations to explore ideas and develop their practice.

Commission Brief:
The new artwork should engage with Sheffield’s Visual Art Collection. It can consider a single artwork or a series of artworks from the Collection that resonate with you and your creative practice. Alternatively, it might consider the Collection more broadly or providean alternative narrative or take the form of deeper interpretation.

The artwork will be displayed in the Graves Gallery. It can use any medium and cover any subject so long as it is rooted in Sheffield’s Visual Art Collection.

How to apply
Visit our website (link in bio) for full details, and to download the brief.
Navigate to the brief on our website:
Sheffield Museums > About us > Work With Us > Tenders and Opportunities

Please share far and wide so we can reach as many artists as possible with this opportunity!

Hercules, the ultimate LGBTQ beefcake from queer history 💪

Here’s curator Jon Sleigh to tell us about the three ages of Hercules, a trio that can be seen in Revolution, Revelation, Reinforcement: Queer Legacies in Sheffield’s Art Collection.

The exhibition pairs or groups historic and contemporary artworks to explore through three key conversations – Revolution, the historical legal and social constraints surrounding Queer expression; Revelation, coded messages which have been hidden or deliberately obscured; and Reinforcement, how the foundations of Queer art and its histories continue to be retained and strengthened.

Growing, caring for and sharing the city’s collections is only possible thanks to you and your generosity – please donate £5 to ensure that the collections, and the stories they tell, can be enjoyed for generations to come.

Exhibition continues until 27 Feb 2027 at the Graves Gallery.
