The Contemporary Jewellery Exchange is a project initiated by Olga Raben in 2014. It resulted in a web exhibition and publication in a form of a book – which is one of the most up – to – date and interesting reviews of contemporary jewellery. 370 artists from all over the world took part in the exchange, using a variety of, often extreme, techniques and materials in their work.
The artists who declared to take part in the exchange, were divided into groups and paired on the basis of the submitted portfolio. Then, each of them was asked to create a unique object, designed specifically for the assigned person, according to the guidelines established between them. How lucky I was to be paired with Nolia Shakti. |
