Via. @galleryfunaky Kiko Gianocca, 'The Elephant on Mars' ring, 2016, silver, 18k gold. This is a pareidolia, a familiar form found unintentionally (like seeing Jesus in your toast) - something Kiko has explored extensively in the last couple of years. ⠀ ⠀ @kikogianocca #kikogianocca #pareidolia #skull #galleryfunaki #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #joyeriacontemporanea #joalheriacontemporanea #gioiellocontemporaneo #bijoucontemporain #artjewellery #artjewelry #AJF #ajfishere #klimt02 #TJA #jewelleryactivist #thejewelleryactivist ⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/BoF_DgIFGFj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jzqckymmv67

Lin Cheung (UK), 'Pearl Necklace - Matinee', necklace, 2018, freshwater pearls, gold.⠀ ⠀ "Pearl necklaces have a distinctive character – I cannot think of a more ‘traditional’ form of jewellery that every culture would recognise. The inspiration for this piece started with a pearl necklace my mother gave me that I never wore. I felt it did not suit me and I do not believe in only one kind of femininity. It sat on a shelf gathering dust so I carved it into a pearl chain that I would wear and perhaps also removing any gender associations by transforming it in this way. Each pearl is hand carved with every other pearl reassembled to form chain links – much like the tradition of working Whitby Jet chains in the 19th Century."⠀ ⠀ Lin Cheung is a senior lecturer in Jewellery Design at Central St Martins University of the Arts, London. She is the winner of the 2018 Françoise van den Bosch Award and the 2018. Herbert Hofmann Prize, with works in these collections as well as the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD), New York. ⠀ @lincheungjewellery #lincheung #ukartist #marifunakiaward2018 #galleryfunaki #contemporaryjewellery #contemporaryjewelry #joyeriacontemporanea #joalheriacontemporanea #gioiellocontemporaneo #bijoucontemporain #artjewellery #artjewelry #AJF #ajfishere #klimt02 #TJA #jewelleryactivist #thejewelleryactivist
