Under the ambiguous term HUNT (English: the hunt; Estonian: the wolf), Kadri Mälk unites her collection of contemporary art jewellery. As a lone wolf, the Estonian artist and teacher compiled the pieces in her eternal hunt for beauty, mystery and creativity. Since jewellery is designed to be worn, Mälk’s fellow artists are not only immortalised in these works; they also pose in portraits alongside their favourite pieces. The jewellery is thus brought to life on the bodies of the collector’s friends and companions.
Join the book presentation for "HUNT: Kadri Mälk’s Jewellery Collection" and signing by Kadri Mälk.
