WOHOOOH!!! CONTEMPORARY JEWELLERY vs ART vs DESIGN


WOHOOOH!!! CONTEMPORARY JEWELLERY vs ART vs DESIGN -
the 1st contemporary jewellery touring exhibition from hong kong

HONG KONG – SYDNEY – TAIPEI – BANGKOK

www.wohoooh.net

10 contemporary jewellers of 5 different nations have decided to push the boundaries and materialistic disciplines inherent in the nature of jewellery. Contemporary jewellery as art; it will be an interactive exhibition between audience and the jewellers with something original, something intimate, something crazy, something mad, something surreal and something unbelievable. The jewellers challenge the conventional creative methodologies that influence jewellery making and art as well as the industry and the public. The exhibition will appeal specifically to local and global jewellers; engaging with people on an acclaim level, in which the exhibition is titled, “WOHOOOH!!!”. 

This exhibition, “WOHOOOH!!!” presents a strong linkage and revolutionary mindset between art and the consumer product.  The works in the exhibition will certainly take the audience to a different level of contemporary art and design of everyday life; encourage interaction and linkage of people; as well as a rethink of the nature of jewellery. Art and jewellery as a lifestyle, the exhibition is full of energy and passion.
