"
When wearing or collecting contemporary jewelry, one can't stay indifferent. The object and the wearer, they're both about something.
There's an interplay, the object becomes performative, interlinked with the attitude of the wearer, and that's what intrigues me."
The 2018 AJF Artist Award application period is closed.
There were 121 applicants from 33 countries, and just one will win $7,500.
The five finalists will be announced in January 2018.
