CURATOR’S STATEMENT
“I am honored to bring together this incredible group of talented artist who use their innovative creativity and exquisite craftsmanship to push the boundaries of both art and jewelry. I curated this exhibition to present a distinct survey of the provocative and diverse directions being explored in the contemporary jewelry community. I am captivated by the visual interest and conceptual dialogue these artists are able to create, all in a functional, wearable design. For me, jewelry is the ultimate interactive art form.”
