With the main objective to show the quality and diversity of contemporary jewelry, opening its doors to the general public, Tincal lab invites every year jewelers from around the world for a Challenge: the creation of up to 3 pieces with a maximum price, inspired by a theme.

In 2024, the 10th edition of this initiative suggests a reflection on the theme “Jewelry and Freedom” and brings to Porto pieces from 78 artists from 31 different countries, created exclusively for this event, with the maximum price of 150€.

The opening of this amazing collective exhibition of unique characteristics will be at Tincal lab, shop 25 of Centro Comercial Bombarda, on the date of Simultaneous Openings at Porto Art District: 16th of November and it can be visited until the end of 2024.

On the opening date, the catalog of this edition will be released and the winner of the Selection of the Jury Award will be announced. The public will also have the opportunity to choose their favorite artists, in person or through online voting until the end of the year. The 3 artists will have the opportunity to exhibit at Tincal lab over the following year.

This initiative aims to inspire artists and raise public awareness by allowing jewelry to leave its more conventional commercial circuit while making its artistic side more accessible - also from a monetary point of view.

In this exhibition, artists use freedom as a source of inspiration, exploring its importance for us as human beings, its fragility, its complexities, its symbols and the different facets it encompasses - these are not only pieces of jewelry, but also reflections, statements, works of art.
