It is no longer possible to think of jewelry exclusively as a luxury item, linked only to the preciousness of the materials and techniques. In an era where every product has already been consumed, produced and distributed globally, jewelry design discipline is faced with a more difficult and complex challenge. That concerns the possibility to be able to think again itself from a conceptual and communicative point of view, so as to be an invitation to a thought that stimulates action and debate, even on questions of an ethical, social and political nature, apparently far from this specific design field.
