« 2016 COURSE PROGRAMME | VALÉRIE JOUVE » |
Spanish jewellery maker Marc Monzó’s self-reflexive minimalistic jewellery is about material and about the nature of objects themselves. His intention is to search for essential forms and to invite people to complete his unpretentious jewellery through their individual use. The emphasis is on the process and the aesthetics of what is not yet finished.
"The craft provides a base. Jewels are the tool, the larger project lies in the attempt to understand. Pieces appear according to the most immediate needs, which turn the manipulated matter into a map of reality." (Marc Monzó)
Recently, Marc Monzó was awarded the Françoise van den Bosch award 2016. His work is currently on view in the group exhibitions at Burg Giebichenstein in Halle (DE) and at Gallery SO in London.
