Exhibition of the CONNECTIONS project - HEAD x Central Saint Martin

February 2025

Exhibition of the creations produced as part of the CONNECTIONS project, the result of a collaboration between HEAD – Genève and Central Saint Martins at Galleria Objets, in London, from February 13 to 15, 2025.

❝CONNECTIONS❞ project was born of a collaborative workshop between Geneva University of Art and Design (HEAD – Genève) and Central Saint Martins. The exhibition of the project took place at the Galleria Objets in London, uniting emerging designers to challenge cultural identities through the lens of contemporary Jewellery. 

Drawing from cultural traditions, they created works that connect the pre-digital, pre-industrial age with today’s era of technology-driven progress. The pieces created are both deeply rooted in cultural identity and boldly forward-looking. Traditional techniques meet tools such as artificial intelligence, 3D printing and computer-aided design, creating an interplay of the handmade and the digitally crafted. Each piece challenges the viewer to consider how the old and the new, the tactile and the virtual coexist in the evolving language of ornamentation.

By revisiting traditional ornaments from their respective countries, they examine what it means to belong while embracing the creative opportunities of dialogue across borders. The resulting works capture the essence of connection, weaving together the personal and the universal, the familiar and the foreign.

In ❝CONNECTIONS❞, jewellery becomes more than an object: it is a bridge between worlds, a dialogue between generations, and a testament to the endless possibilities of shared creativity.
